It's just "Maine-ly" beautiful!

I know you are all waiting so anxiously to hear about Prince Edward Island...hold your horses....there are entries before that!

Day 17: Boston, MA
There is so much history in Boston. Cobblestone streets, old buildings, sites of Revolutionary War battles etc etc etc...but, you need to get there first. Something that proved to be impossible for us. We woke up in time to get dressed and drive to service at the Old North Church (you know, where one if by land, two if by sea took place). Arriving downtown, we immediately got lost, drove down tiny streets, and found the church with absolutely NO parking anywhere in site. We continued to drive until we missed church, still hoping to find a cheap parking space to walk the Frontier Trail (basically the route on which Paul Revere rode). Still no luck with parking and at this point we had driven the entire route a few times. Ark was completely finished driving so we laid out on the Quincy Shore instead. It was a very relaxing Sabbath. And we read our Bibles on the bay too...counts for church, right? That evening was spent sitting around the campfire and reading books until late. Oh, what a lazy life we lead.

Day 18: Acadia National Park
Of course, a day just couldn't be a day without a lot more driving than expected. This was one of those days! We finally arrived at the park, had our campsite set up, and were ready to site see...at about 4:30 in the afternoon. That's okay, the sun doesn't set there until 8ish so we had time to see the views of the coast all around the island. Talk about magnificent. Some things just can't be captured with a camera. Deep blues, brilliant sunsets, and gorgeous (but cold) beaches. Who could ever say it's a barren desert...that made no sense. We enjoyed fresh Maine seafood at Colonel's Restaurant including blueberry ice tea...a great splurge to our $1/day budget :) Our evening was topped off with a sunset on the peak of a Cadillac Mountain. Quite amazing.

Day 19: Okay...now you have it...Prince Edward Island, Canada!
Once again, a day is not complete without a longer drive than expected. Today we drove 2 hours longer and didn't have many adventures on the road...oh, except for having to surrender our mace at the border. I think we kinda expected it. So now we are in Canada and unarmed...well, almost. I'll be right back....Sorry, I had to watch my first Canadian sunset over the lake by our tent. It's super amazing! Anyway, we are here now and eaten and almost ready for bed. Quite chilly in New England and Canada (thanks Callan for leaving your gloves in your jacket :)...not sure how much swimming we will get done, but just being here is such a gift from the Lord! Everyday, we remember to thank Him for this amazing adventure!! That is where I will leave you all for today!
