Day 61/62 - Searsport and Bar Harbor

Day before yesterday we left camp in the rain. Steve got in a little fun before we left.

It was our fifth time in the whole trip that it rained during the day.  Even though we were wet and cold, we celebrated when we hit the Atlantic Ocean in Camden, ME.  

Terry and Steve stopped at the docks and saw lobster being unloaded from the boat.  And that's Terry's bike in front of those sailboats.

We had a nice campsite on the Penobscot Bay outside of Searsport.  There was a blue grass festival there and we heard music into the evening.  There was also a guy making potato chips.  They were delicious.

Riding across the bay. 

Yesterday we arrived in Bar Harbor after riding our bikes through 11 states and one Canadian province for a whopping total of 4100 miles.  
Here we are dipping our front tires in the ATLANTIC OCEAN. 

You can imagine the emotions are still pretty mixed.  Bar Harbor is an amazing location and I'm sure much lobster will be consumed.  We wanted to let you know that we arrived safely but there is a lot to do so I'm keeping this somewhat short.  I'll post an epilogue as soon as I can.

  2. Thanks Juliann, it is taking time to process it all. Time to do some reflective writing. See you at Mack.
