Onward...





Boulder Coffee Compant and the Rochester Public market on Monday morning. We had so much fun visiting Matt, Lizzie and Chad! I think we'll go back in the fall.

This is a quick update. I have misplaced my card reader, and so can't really share any photos here :( We're having a really wonderful time though. We went kayaking, whale watching and flying in a glider in Bar Harbor, Maine, which was exactly as amazing as it sounds. Incredible to be flying in a glider. Very silent, cramped and it was very much like a roller coaster. And to be on the open sea, with no land in sight.... Unbelievable. I was almost moved to tears on both rides. We didn't see any whales, but we spotted lots of harbor seals (the gorgeous spotted ones; my favorite!) and tons of harbor porpoises and bunches of sea birds.

I can't wait to share all my photos! I know I've taken way too many, but they are all so great. I'll have more time to update, probably tomorrow. We're just stopping in Camden, ME right now to get some food (at an awesome delicious cafe!) and some wi-fi to make sure we know where the heck we're going. We'll be shoving off shortly and our next stop on the way to our campground in MA is Salem and Marblehead. Can't wait!!

I'm completely jealous! It sounds like a lovely trip. D used to fly gliders in high school. He still misses it.
