Vacationland

We spent a week in Maine and I have to agree with the slogan on their license plates stating that Maine is "the way life should be."  People are so incredibly nice in Maine. Nothing like the Mass-holes down in Boston.

I'm so happy my good friend CharLee was there to go exploring with me. We spent a day in Kennebunkport where we shopped all the little boutiques and ate delicious crepes.
Then we found our way over to Cape Porpoise to see the light house on Goat Island. 
A few days later, Char and I went to Ogunquit and walked along the famous Marginal Way. It's about a 2 mile walk along the coast that leads to a small town with shops and restaurants. 
The views were amazing and I wish that house in the left corner belonged to someone I know so I could stay there all summer. 

We found a great little mexican restaurant called Bandito's.  I know, I know,  we were in the most perfect place to eat SEAFOOD and we chose mexican! What is wrong with us? At least I ordered fish and shrimp tacos. 

Last stop of the day was Cape Elizabeth to see the Portland Head light house. We got there just as the sun was setting. This is my favorite light house I have been to on the east coast.
I loved visiting Maine and hope we can go back soon.
