I was surprised by all the beautiful flowers.
There were window boxes everywhere.
LOTS of walking and shopping.
LOTS of places to eat.
We had dinner at
This was the view from our table.

Red Apple Campground
I post campground photos to help us remember the correct location of each campground and give others good locations for the area. This campground reminded me of the Florida campgrounds. There were many park models and trailers here that are permanent and used as summer homes. We talked to the man next to us and he will be headed to St. Pete October 1. The staff here was very helpful. In fact, they made us a reservation at the restaurant requesting for us the window table. OR if you don't feel like going out you can have a lobster dinner delivered to your campsite. Everything was very neat and clean.
Cape Neddick Lighthouse (Nubble Light)
is located on a small, rocky island. It was illuminated for the first time in 1879. We could only view the lighthouse from the parking lot. Visitors are not allowed on the island.
The shore is all large rocks here but just down the road are sandy beaches. There are more rocky shores than beaches. The beaches are courser sand than we see at the Gulf coast. The beaches are dog friendly!
There were no shells to be found but while taking a walk on the beach you can pick up interesting rocks. Most are very smooth.
There are many homes and cottages up and down the coast. They are in all sizes and colors.
It was a delightful afternoon just driving through the small communities near Kennebunkport.
Freeport and L.L.Bean
One afternoon we drove to Freeport to shop at the L.L.Bean flagship store.
We saw their boot car on the interstate.
Leaf Peeping
| The leaves are just beginning to change in this area of Maine. |
Now we are headed to Bar Harbor and Acadia.
