Another fantastic day of Maine tourism with two of my favorite fellow travelers.
Began with morning in downtown Portland, with its hip vibe that is both contemporary and historic, with streets and architecture that dates back to the nation’s earliest roots.
We headed north on a pilgrimage to LL Bean where we checked out all the outdoor gear, bought some fun clothes, and posed with the famous duck boot.
We spent the afternoon at the coastal Maine botanical gardens in Boothbay, which is also home to the giant Danish trolls hidden among the trees.
Soren waves hello
Birk has a branch beard
Roskya is the most thoughtful but it also kind of shy
Gro is zen-like in a yoga pose
Also dahlias
Finally, when in Maine, of course, you have to stop at a roadside eatery for crab and lobster rolls.
Good times.
Plenty of steps.Tomorrow Acadia National Park.
