Maine trip report - Day 3

We had to truck it to get from Boothbay to Bar Harbor, so we skipped some our planned sights and focused on what else, lighthouses.

We drove up to Boothbay Harbor and on the way saw the famous Bush family compound in Kennebunkport, which is absolutely gorgeous. Time to get a family compound!

We detoured to visit a cool classic car museum in Arundel before hitting another lighthouse.

Portland Head Lighthouse 

We drove through Brunswick to pay homage to a Civil War hero we named our Gettysburg shark, Sharky Josh, after.

Then it was time to settle into a corner room at the Topside Inn with an amazing view.

Maine trip report - Day 1

M is slightly obsessed with Maine and wouldn't shut up about it, so obviously it was time to drag D there to chauffeur her around to eat lobstah. She used a jazz camp for Geo at New England Conservatory in Boston as her excuse to visit Maine. The flight to Boston was delayed 2 hours so we arrived at the airport hotel around 3 am. When we arrived, she realized that the suitcase full of clothes for her and D somehow did not make the trip. Not a great start but luckily we were 5 minutes from Target and she bought an entire new wardrobe while D and Geo slept at the hotel. 

After dropping Geo off in Boston, it was time to hit the coast! We made it to Kennebunkport and saw a lighthouse and fort along the way. Maine is full of them.

More on Williams

M and D are irrationally exuberant about sending H to the second-most expensive college in America (based on tuition). 

Here are some photos of H in Williams gear throughout the years.
