Here and there but not quite everywhere!
We spent our second day in Acadia National Park today, spending most of our time hiking around Jordan Pond.

We headed right into Acadia National Park this morning, focusing on the area directly south of Bar Harbor.

We started out the morning with a drive to the easternmost point of the United States mainland at West Quoddy Head in Lubec, Maine. We spent awhile there hiking around and enjoying the scenery before heading into Lubec to have lunch. Nothing was open so we ate some fig bars that we had around before heading back west. We had time to hit just one park on the way, Bog Brook Cove Preserve, on our way back.
