Well today I got to "sleep in". We didn't set a time to get up but Kent has readjusted to eastern time pretty quickly and he got up again at 6:50. I couldn't get out of bed until at least 7:30 though. We went out for breakfast and I got awesome blueberry pancakes. I guess Maine is famous for blueberries and Massachusetts is famous for cranberries. We headed north today to see a bit more of Maine. We went to the oldest lighthouse in Maine which was pretty. The coastline of Maine is seriously rocky I don't know how anyone could be a sailor in this area. Then, being so qualified at finding alcohol in most any state (except the one we live in), found a vodka
distillery. We took a short tour on how vodka was made. They set us down the road to a really nice restaurant t
o get Mary Jean the lobster she had been wanting all trip. We looked like serious tourists when we started snapping photos of the lobster there in the restaurant. I actually tried it too. I
really didn't understand what all of the fuss was about, it was a bit rubbery to me. We then hit the road again to go down this little finger of land that came south off of the state. It was an awesome drive, there were points on the the road where you could see the ocean on both sides of the road. Ron had absolutely no faith in my navagation skills but I got us right down to the very tip of land. It was cool.
