Tower Spa
It looked that the hotel's tower would afford great views of the White Mountains. It is however, an active spa so not possible to drop in and visit. We knocked on the door early next morning and went up, not thinking that it would be glassed-in, and therefore not so good for photos. Geo: 43.2206, -70.5778
Another great presentation from a naturalist this morning, followed by a pretty drive to Canterbury Village, NH - one of 16 "Shaker" locations in the US. Temperature was a chilly -6 deg which put the icing on the foliage colours.
Along the way we disembarked to walk a short hiking trail to "The Basin", an unusual rock feature in a stream bed. And went past the "Old Man of the Mountain" a New Hampshire treasure, until he met his demise.
Then on to The Cliff House, our final hotel at Ogunquit on the coast of Maine. They've saved the best for last, including farewell cocktails and a sumptuous lobster dinner.
The tour has been terrific and I was very pleased with the fall colours. Off now to Waterford CT to stay with a couple we met briefly in Ecuador last year.
