Vacation Wrap Up!

Well as you can see; posting daily didn't work out! As I am still not home in VA yet, it is hard to find time to post :) But this morning, while K is napping, i'm trying to catch up a bit. These pictures wrap up the first week of our vacation in New England.

We opted to drive the Mt. Washington road on our own. The road opens at 8am, and we were there at 8am! It made it really nice to not have so much traffic on such a 'skinny' road though! Mt. Washington is the highest peak in New England. We were fortunate enough to have a really clear day!

Picture of Mt. Washington from the base.

You can see it wasn't very busy at this time of year or day! Our lonely van in the parking lot overlooking some 6,000 feet down.

The Peak is 6,288 feet high. It is an 8 mile drive from the where the Auto Road begins.Kaitlyn at one of our many picnic lunches! :) This was on our way to Bar Harbor.Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor Maine. A picture of Frenchman's Bay.Picture of Frenchman's Bay from the top of Cadillac Mountain. This is another part of Acadia Park called Shoodic Pennisula. A lighthouse along the way.This is Portland Maine- and the Portland Maine Lighthouse- you've probably seen pictures of this one before!
Now this is a picture of the "Little Women" house in Concord Massachusetts
After we left Concord/Lexington MA area, we headed on down to Boston for our last 5 days! (next post)
