We took a three day weekend and went to Portland Maine on the "CAT". Parked the car in Yarmouth, NS and walked onto the ferry. A shuttle met us in Portland to take us to our hotel. Saturday morning was foggy but good for walking. We took a trolly ride through old Portland, went on an old steam train trip on the East Promenade and had some wonderful seafood chowder served in a bread bowl. Back to the hotel for a couple of hours and then we finished the day at the Maine Mall with supper at the Old Country Buffet. Yum good. The sun came out about 2:00 and the weather was gorgeous for the rest of our stay.
Sunday morning, up and on the shuttle to the ferry. Walked on and really enjoyed watching all the activity in the Harbour. Beautiful day. The fog set in about 1/2 way across the bay and stayed with us for about an hour outside of Yarmouth and then beautiful sun again.
All in all a great trip and I managed to walk quite a bit. In fact my leg muscles are sore and tired but they will recover. I do want to be stronger before trying to walk that much again. I was so tired and sore on the way home. But I am so glad we made the effort and went. A lot of fun... and a great way to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.
