We kept heading South and saw some beautiful houses and beach at Marshall Point.Headed onto Kennebunkport which again was another cute little harbour with little shops and lots of boats, not that our GPS could get us there. They are starting to set up for Halloween as all the businesses get involved and have started preparing their displays. We were keen to continue heading South to Ogunquit and Portsmouth but we still had a 2 hour drive ahead to the White Mountains. So off we went.Maine was in all as pretty as a picture. The houses are generally large and beautifully maintained with manicured lawns and ... read more

Geo: 43.0708, -70.7782Bath is located south of where we were staying on Highway 1. The visitors bureau is an old railway station. The people there were very helpful. The town itself has many older buildings including one of the upper streets which has many grand old houses of various styles.The Maine Maritime Museum was a real treasure. The site of the museum was a facility for the construction of wooden ships and schooners in the past. The largest was the Wyoming. The metal sculpture representation is full size although the masts were about 50% higher than shown. It is hard to imagine the size of these wooden ships. The museum consisted of several buildings which illustrated the various processes involved in the construction of a wooden sailing ship. The City of Bath is known for its ... read more

Adventure of a lifetime Just like every human being, I also have that one thing that I would put anything at its disposal.

While we did not find much cooler weather, at least the nights cool down now that we are close to the White Mountains area. We stayed at Newfound RV Park just outside of Plymouth in the center of New Hampshire with good access to the mountains, lakes and outlet shopping. We went to the Castle in the Clouds which is located up the mountain northeast of Lake Winnipesaukee. It is a beautiful house and lovely gardens and a view that is amazing. There is a very narrow one way road that you drive up to the parking area for the tour to the Castle. On the way up there is a pull out for a short hike to a lovely waterfall. At the parking area there I a gift shop and café and you catch the ... read more
