Day 11

Mariner's Grille

Hello from Maine!!  This is Peppermint Patty! Our day started out this morning at 4:00 a.m....  No Judy, we are not going to play cards  Luckily, we were all able to go back to sleep.(lol)  When we did decide to roll out of bed we looked at the bay and it was white.  We were socked in with fog.  So our travels started a little later than usual.

Our first stop was at Goodwill..  (We have to keep Judy happy :)  Of course, a few treasures were found.  We then turned North and headed to Camden.  Inland was okay but the ocean was still covered with fog.  So much for going up to Mt. Battie to see breath taking views, maybe on our way back to the hotel the fog will lift. Thank goodness we never run out of quaint shops, antiques and galleries.

Pam finally found her blueberry pancakes!

I am sure you are asking what we had for lunch today?  Well, once again we were not disappointed.  Here is a surprise, none of us had seafood!! (we have to get our systems back to normal again.)  Pam had the best wild blueberry pancakes she has ever had, the rest of us had a good old fashion juicy bacon cheeseburger and mushroom and Swiss burgers with sweet potato fries, sitting on a deck overlooking a waterfall that flowed into the marina.

At Camden with some treasures!

Just a little taste:)

After this delicious lunch, we headed farther north to Lincolnville.  Judy and I sat on the beach and was entertained by a lonely loon, Pam and Sharla went on investigating the shops.  The fog was still a problem so we had to figure out what else to do since we couldn't see the ocean. The sun was shining every where else but low fog loomed over the ocean all day.  On the map we found the Cellardoor Winery and Vineyard.. "Hey, we haven't toured a winery yet"  So off we went.  Lucky us, there was even free wine tasting!  Don't worry Mom and Dad, Sharla was our ever faithful big sister and was the designated driver :)  

It was now 4:30 and we still had low hanging fog so we didn't stop at Mt. Battie and headed back to the hotel for a dip in the pool, rest and relaxation, and time to start packing because tomorrow we are heading to Ellsworth a small town near the Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park area.

Stay tuned for more adventures of "The Griffin Girls on the Move" tomorrow night.

Good Night,
