Mount Desert Island, Maine
(Click on the photo to view album)
Ten days ago we came back from our best family vacation so far. It would've been easily done since it's probably our second (not counting visiting relatives), but it was so spectacular in terms of experience and relaxation and lack of problems that it will be hard to top in the future. We had rented a cabin in Maine, close to Bar Harbor deciding to go in fall mostly because of the off-season rates, but I must say it was probably the best time to go regardless.
I feel completely inept to write about it besides relentlessly repeating myself... "It was really really GREAT. SO GREAT. No, you must understand, it was GREAT!" I will spare you, but you are invited to look at a selection of photos which was narrowed down to 49 from uhm, 400. I wrote commentary to most of them, because it was the easiest way to remember it all. If you view it with the slideshow the photos are more impressive, but you won't see the writing, so basically you have to watch them twice. Cheating is ok as long as you comment enthusiastically.

Great Pictures! I want to go there now...
Wooooow, so many windows, so much water, such a beautiful house - like in a movie, only it was real :-)))))) You must feel extremely relaxed now ;-)
I would definitely choose fall...I actually love this time of year for "doing stuff" even though it is not customary. I actually just love this time of year!
Pictures are beautiful.
As a Jesuit I think about the words of John 10,10: "I came so that everyone would have life, and have it in its fullest", everywhere!
