Looking Around Maine

There is so much around here to do in the state of Maine in the United States!  It's a good size state, compared to others, especially in New England, but what makes it so unique is that if you travel from one side to the next, it's like you are in another world!  The shore line is all about the ocean, lobsters, and lighthouses.  Inland, it's all mountains, lakes, Moose, hunting and camping.  In the Winter months, skiing and ice fishing is big here!  In the fall, the hunters come out to capture their prized deer, bear, or wild turkey!  Fishing and lobsters are the big catches from the ocean during the Summer!  There is so much to see and do!  


Our host mom conveniently carries us in a mesh pocket on the side of her bag to make sure we don't miss anything!  



Acadia National Park is one place that if you visit Maine you should see - it' s BEAUTIFUL any time of the year......but Summer and Fall are our Host Family's pick for the best times!  It's home to the tallest Mountain on the US Atlantic Coast and a definite treasure not to be missed.


Here are some pictures of the park so you can see how much appreciated beauty Acadia National Park holds.....
