Maine Trip

Who! I'm finally back and have shaken off the vacation laziness. I've been in Maine starting from Monday night, all the way to Friday morning. Technically, I stayed there for three days, since Monday and Friday don't count. It was a fun trip filled with laughter and food, and while I may not visit Maine again, I will definitely go on an another trip.

Sorry for the lack of clear pictures, but I broke the camera at the airport before I got to Maine. So most of the pictures were taken by my phone or a disposable camera. On Tuesday, we had decided to travel to all the tourist traps in Maine and drive around aimlessly. We visited to the lighthouse, which was beautiful and so picturesque. Look at that picture, it belongs on some kind of postcard. We ended up taking a lot of pictures, and everything was so beautiful.
Afterwards, we drove to Lenny the Chocolate Moose. Goodness, I was about to attack that Moose and just start munching on the horns. Instead I settled on taking way too many pictures of the moose and the bears around it.

So to settle my sweet tooth, I ended up getting a variety of chocolate. I hate having too many varieties because I can't choose and ended up just staring at the cases of chocolate. In the end, I settled on taking a pound of chocolates. Truffles, pralines, with flavorings such as almonds, white chocolate, and lord knows what else.

There was an another layer on the bottom, and yes, everyone of them were delicious.
While in Maine, I decided that I would eat lobster at least once a day everyday. Usually I ended up eating nothing but lobster rolls whenever I ordered. Ah, I have to stop writing about it. It makes me want lobster and lobsters are expensive in NY. They were so good and sweet, with not a lot of mayo, so that you can still taste the lobster. Ah no more.


The next day was spent in Lobster Festival. It was a two hour drive in order to get there from our hotel. Honestly, it was just like a regular street festival. The only difference was that they sold lobster. Luckily, I love street food, but anyone looking for something different, would be disappointed.

Lobster eaten outside in a tent with a group of people with the water right next to you made the lobsters even more delicious. I think we paid around $36 for three lobsters. We ordered blueberry cobblers, which were so warm and sweet, and was a perfect dessert for our meal.

Look at those lobsters. Look at them. They will suck out your soul and taste buds. It was a beautiful day and I loved my trips except for a couple of things, but those were minor details. I left out a good portion of my trip, because I am too lazy to write about it. Sorry for the ramble hopefully, the nest post will be better. Doubt it though.
