Acadia!!!
Acadia has been on my list for a long long time, since...last year. :)
5hr drive from Boston, we started at 6am (absolutely not my favourate time). We weren't so sure about what we should expect for the next 3 days in the National Park (it is the smallest one, I think). Martin was even joking about if had time on the way back, there was a 24hr outlet, we could midnight fashion shopping.
Day 1: Loop trip
20miles of one way drive loop, stop and enjoy whenever you want! I guess we started our relaxing time by a quite picnic lunch. Sandy beach, thumder hole, Jordan pond, Sunset at Cadillac Mountain. Yeah, we did the marked scene, we enjoyed more unmarked sites where we just simply looking at the sea. (On the other side of the ocean is Martin's home, hehe, hope he saw or sensed it).



Day2: Hiking
I love steep hiking, it is challenging and much more rewarded. On the summit, simply lye down, close eyes and listen to the sunshine with wind. You will feel it...




Day3: Tandem Bike
Thanks to John Rockefeller, Acadia has 45miles of carriage road where automobiles are prohibited. I insisted on tandem bike as I could sit on the back and enjoy while the big guy transported us, well, the price I paid by being lazy is the whole front scene. The lakes, the beaches, my feeling was that I was totally surrounded by nature, so far far away from any man-made civilization (I mean towers, cars, as trails, carriage roads are all man-made).



Day3 night: Lobster!!
No need to describe!
As the introduction movie stated: Acadia is not about the biggest, the largest... It is about solitude. And lobster.
