Lobster, lobster and more lobster

After getting stranded in NYC, we made it to Maine the following morning without losing much time. Our first impression of Maine consisted of Jamie being flipped off by a fellow driver when leaving the airport. We immediately felt right at home.

Our weekend in Maine entailed eating, laying on the beach, reading and more eating. Exactly the things one should do on a long weekend. We ate our weight in lobster rolls and got to experience some of the craziest waves Maine has seen in a long time. The people in Maine were incredibly friendly and hospitable, especially the owners of 16 Beach Street, the bed and breakfast where we stayed.

After much discussion and an anonymous vote, we decided that the two best meals we ate were the lemon blueberry pancakes made by Linda, one of our hosts and the lobster roll at Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery. Our most fun night spontaneously occurred at Hurricane's in Kennebunkport. We stopped there on Sunday night for a drink and ended up staying the night and watching the Yankee game (amongst a room full of Red Sox fans). The bartender treated us like we were Norm and we ate some delicious oysters. The Yankees winning was just an added bonus.




Hello Kennebunkport!


Thank you Bob's for your most delicious lobster roll of the trip.


And thank you Linda for your amazing breakfasts, especially these pancakes!
