The trip to Acadia was a bit surprising in some ways. Of interest is that the climate in Maine was no colder than at the Pennsylvania border area of New York, where I live. The fall leaves were even a bit less advanced, and the temperatures were about the same. Acadia is great in terms of the variety of outdoor activities. Lots of hiking, lots of biking, and lots of water sports are possible! Here’s an image from the carriage roads in Acadia National Park.
We spent some time on two occasions cycling the carriage roads on this trip. Here’s an image of Annie, the principal of The Family Foundation School, a school for at risk teens enjoying the view from Acadia’s Carriage roads. The location is from “around” Sargent Mountain.
One other really enjoyable aspect of Acadia is the opportunity to enjoy sunrise and sunset over oceans and bays. Here is an image of the sun setting over Seal Cove in Acadia National Park. Both images in this post were taken with my Nikon D300 and 18-200 mm AF-S VR lens.
