Post 64 ~ Falling Up Tour ~ Maine ~ on top of the world

Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor




What a beautiful day to spend on top of the world overlooking the sea, viewing the beautiful fall colors and looking over Bar Harbor

Colors are finally changing



Beautiful scenes on the way to Bar Harbor

Bar Harbor Island

Even the gift shops in Bar Harbor had lobsters

Entering the park

Cruise ship in the harbor

Colors just starting to change at the lower elevations

Most of the following pics are from the top of Mt. Washington (elev. 2,500')















We are way up there



The town of Bar Harbor from the top of Mt. Washington



A little more color change at higher elevations

It was a fun ride down the mountain

The cruise ship looked pretty tiny from the top of the mountain

We were surprised at the number of lakes in the mountain

Lunch time

Had to get a pic of this 4 1/2 lb, lobster, the largest I've ever seen

Another lobster pound

  1. I almost went to Acadia for service-learning trip! We could have been there at the same time. Did you see anyone from AQ?
