Portland, Maine

We spent two nights in Portland, Maine. We had good weather, but boy, it was COLD! Brrrr.
We found a few lighthouses to see and poked around the town of Portland, but we didn't find a whole lot to do in Maine. We discovered a beach town nearby called Old Orchard Beach, but this time of year it's pretty quiet and things are mostly closed or just about to close for the season. We are finding that most of the RV parks are closing or already closed for the season too. The last two we stayed at were closing the day we left.


Beautiful fall colors!!

A pretty old church by the road

We had the best dinner at Ken's!
Vasili had lobster, of course!

Portland is Maine's largest city.
This is the sea port of Portland




This cute lighthouse is called "Bug Light"
We were able to climb in and look out!

  1. Fall is my favorite time of the year! I sure do miss the lovely color change of the leaves. Jen did you go on Food network and check out the places to eat on the road? Vasili's lobster looked yummy! I love the fact that Nick smiles in all of his pics. See mom and dad knew what a great opportunity this was!
    In Christ,
