Bar Harbor, Maine

Our big camping trip for the summer and as the picture shows, it was definetly a vacation. We did so much that I will try and not forget anything. Please look at all the August Pics as there is so many awesome one's!
DAY 1: HANGING OUT W/ THE BLOOMES AT THIER CABIN ON THE LAKE: Braeden did a paddle boat all by himself. We all enjoyed relaxing and spending the day together and this time-not in tents!









DAY 2: ACADIA NATIONAL PARK: Along w/ the Bloome Family, we traveled Park Loop Road, making several stops and hikes along the way. We also ventured to the top of Cadillac Mountain where we enjoyed some wild blueberries as a nice treat! Several breathtaking views:)

DAY 3: OCEANARIUM: This was our first and only day of "alittle less than perfect" weather. So we decided we could kinda take the day alittle slow and go to the Oceanarium on Mt. Desert Island. There we got to see the lobster hatchery, see a blue lobster and old many other forms of sea life. Braeden's favorite was the Seastar.

DAY 4: BAR HARBOR AND LOBSTER FISHING/SEAL WATCHING BOAT TOUR The morning started w/ Mike and Braeden renting bikes to ride around the campground, while the twins and I just enjoyed coffee. Later that day, we all ventured to Bar Harbor where we did some shopping and stopped in a Whale Museam. We them went on a Boat Tour which was awesome. It was nice to enjoy the sun setting as we saw Harbor Seals, got a lesson on Lobster fishing and even got to see Egg Island Lighthouse. Braeden loved the Lighthouse. He was also the first to "dig in" and hold the lobster's and other sea creatures.

DAY 5: BAR HARBOR LIGHTHOUSE AND PIRATE COVE MINI-GOLFIt was another beautiful day. We decided to travel to the "other side" of the island and visit one of the famous lighthouses--Yea we got there and well, we all laughed at how small it was. After taking us about 5 seconds to look at that, we decided to do some hiking on the cliffs. It was so beautiful. Later that day we met the Bloomes in Bar Harbor and then went to Pirate Cove's Mini-Golf. I think Braeden was the winner:)

Day 6: SCENIC FLIGHT AND OUR LAST DAY:(A very spur of the moment thing w/ the help of the Bloome Family (watching the twins-thank you so much!!), Braeden Mike and I took a flight of the island. It was the perfect day and Braeden's first time on an airplane. He was so excited, but also admit's alittle nervous at first. Nervous or not-he was all smiles and glued to the look out the window the entire time. His favorite part was taking off and landing! After the flight, we hung out by the lake and had a lobster feast. Our night ended w/ a very awesome campfire-and quite twins:)
LASTLY...... This is the only moose we saw in Maine!
