Time to go Home

 

leaving North Haven on the ferry

This is the final post about our Maine vacation.  The one about the sad journey home.  We caught the ferry to the mainland at 7 AM and spent the rest of the day driving to Boston where we spent our final night in an airport hotel.  On the way south we ended up with time to kill and so drove down to the coast at Georgetown just north of Bath.  I'd never been down there before and the drive down from route 1 was gorgeous.  There was a long line for the lobster rolls at the lobster shack on the dock, but the line was worth it because the lobster roll had more lobster meat in it than I have ever seen.  I had the fried clams and they were excellent.  Fried clams and lobster rolls are really something you can only get in Maine.

After we dropped off Marcel at the Portland airport it was just a slog to the hotel.  And then up before dawn to catch the plane home to Alaska.  We got home to Kodiak around 9:30.  Vacation over.
