Bar Harbor, ME

Bar Harbor is a "tendered" port...that's where we get on a little boat and shuttle over to land. 🚣. 
 We did this in Alaska and was a pretty cool experience.

I finally decided on the excursion!!!    I wanted to see Acadia Park...
and do the Lobster Boat thing...

Originally I was looking at two different excursions...but then I saw one that had both!
   So I figured why not!

Hopefully the weather in October will be wonderful and not cold and damp!
