Bar Harbor Boat Trip

Yesterday we went into Bar Harbor to take a ocean-going catamaran. We went to the area of the town pier and enjoyed walking around town before our 2pm departure. Although it was day time, and the moose was not lit up, I think it is still cool on top the building. There is a large lobster further up the street.

The boat trip was booked as Historic Lighthouses and Mansions. We were supposed to see 5 lighthouses, but it was pretty foggy. To be fair, before we left the dock, they told us about the fog and allowed anyone to get off and reschedule. We decided to go anyway as some of the areas were in bright sunshine. This is the only lighthouse we saw clearly. We did see two others, but they were pretty foggy pictures.

This one is a little foggy but still visible.

The catamaran went at 24 knots in the open sea. I stood in the bow and kind of felt like I was on the Titanic. It was exhilarating.


Not all of the trip was in fog, we saw some beautiful sections with many people enjoying their sailboats.


We also were fortunate to see wild life. This one is an Osprey in a nest atop of sign.


This is an American Bald Eagle. The pyramid he is sitting on top of was build of bricks.


Janice took this picture of seals on the rocks.


There are so many beautiful houses along the coast. The only names I recognized were Martha Stewart and Rockefeller. Don't know the others, but they sure had pretty houses.
