Our trip to Cape Elizabeth and Portland, Maine was incredible, as always. Family memories made by the ocean are always "keepers"..We picnic, walk, talk, laugh, discover,and share..It keeps getting better, and we're thinking that we should just pack it up and move to this rocky coastal part of New England .. Why not? We've certainly lived the busy, fun, city life. The intoxicating smells of the ocean are really what we love so much, and dream about. Why not wake up to this, and at day's end, sleep with the windows open, only to hear the crashing of the waves..?
Of course, we had our " lobsta"; Just unreal! It's as if the water they come out of has sugar in it!! Clams, both steamed and fried were devoured also, and washed down with lots of wine..Ummm....
Portland is a fast growing city and has a huge artist community. There are lots of great, unique shops and boutiques, and we also found the communities to be very health conscious. Spas and yoga studios are scattered throughout Portland. Also, more biking on the roads than we've seen in a long time..
I wish I could fine tune my photo posting, and show you so many other great spots we love..
The turkey at the end of this post is one we drove by one day, and actually thought it was a dog, or bear cub! It was huge!!!!! I mean huge! It was strutting around the field and "fanning", so I couldn't resist. Guess I'll have to go back to find it come November? Have a really great day!!!
