If you missed Part I, you can find it here! I’ll start you out with a slideshow of photos of our first day in Maine. There’s 100…sorry, I usually edit things down more, but I couldn’t. I think 25 is a great number of photos to share. 100 is just me being lazy:)
After our Bowdoin College visit, Joe got us some yummy sandwiches from the Big Top Deli – The Goose sandwich was delicious and contained key words including “Gouda” and “avocado.” Yum! We took our sandwiches and drove from Brunswick to Lands End on Bailey Island…about 20 minutes from Joe’s school.
Then we picnicked next to the ocean. Ahh…
After a day of air and car travel, spending several hours exploring a rocky, ocean shore was just the ticket. We adjusted our schedule so we could stay and play longer.
My brothers took Andrew down the rocky shore for some adventure, and Sylvia and I dipped our toes in the chilly salt water.
We hunted for sea glass and found lots of beautiful rocks and tiny shells. After carefully collecting a pile of our favorites, the kids gleefully hurled it all into the sea.
The kids and I had fun dipping our fingers in the water and tasting it. “Salty!!!”
We got a perfect day of weather for our outing. Sunny, a little breeze. Our lungs full of ocean air.
