After two beautiful days in Winter Harbor Maine, we rode today to Machias, Maine. First, let me say a few words about Winter Harbor and the Schoodic Peninsula. If you plan to visit Acadia National Park, Schoodic Peninsula is a must!. We stayed in Winter Harbor at the Main Stay Cabins, in the Crow's Nest studio. Roger and Pearl are gracious hosts. Our studio was spotless and, the best feature, an incredible view. Worth the trip, worth the stay!
Our ride to Machias was 49 miles with two different weather patterns -- complete downpour or rain. We arrived in the early afternoon soaked to our bones! At one point, as cars were speeding past us on Route 1, I had the thought that at least every other driver must have been looking at us and thinking "poor bastards!"
The upside to this town in the middle of nowhere, was our purchase of a freshly steamed lobster that we brought back to our hotel room. At $10.00, what a bargain and treat!
We are now dry, fed and in a hotel room listening to a thunderstorm outside! Tomorrow is another day....
