You would think that a Blog Post regarding the Boat ride we took while visiting Acadia National Park would include a photo of the boat. You would think. So, above are some very cool looking lobster bobbin things. They are all over Maine. You know, because they trap lobsters. I took about 10 pictures of these SAME bobbin things. No boat. But aren't they cool?
We took a very fun Boat Cruise on the Sea Princess to the Cranberry Islands, etc... the Cranberry Islands are a couple of the Islands that make up the Isleford Islands... but I apparently only remember The Cranberry Islands. There was a Park Ranger on board as part of the fun, and he pointed just about everything imaginable out to us. Very interesting, and entertaining!
This is the Bare Island Lighthouse.
An Osprey Nest... which are EVERYWHERE in Florida, but Ranger Bob was making such a big deal about it, I felt obligated to take a picture. Ok, kidding. This one is estimated to be about 50 years old because of how big it is... apparently they add to it each year. That is impressive. Hence, the photo.
Fun Sea Lions. Lounging.
On Little Cranberry Island, we got to get off the boat and walk around. There aren't many year round residents, but this is their market and post office. There were also little kids selling lemonade, brownies, and sea urchins on the side of the road. We bought brownies and sea urchins.
Inside the post office... the boxes reminded us of our mail boxes at Word of Life!
The signs in the post office cracked me up... especially the one regarding the photocopy of the lost key. Hence, the photo...
Our delightful fam!
Ranger Bob and Carly!
He really did a great job on the tour!
As we were heading to our next "destination" we saw this huge Reindeer on the side of the road. No hunting allowed on Acadia, so he's pretty safe... Laurie said it was an 8 point Buck, but Carly and I are sticking with our Original Call: Reindeer.

That's where I left my key!
