We eagerly boarded the whale boat for our trip out to sea. The trip was supposed to last about 3 hours, but ended up being at least 4. We stood up there in the tip, the whole time, about 40 degrees on the water, going 30 knots, and 96 miles. Yeah, it was cold!
We saw lobster boats with many birds chasing them. We saw puffins, seals, boats, lighthouses and more!
It was hard to stay standing, let alone walk.
We saw fancy houses!
One of these is the Campbell Soup guy’s house, but I cannot remember which one. Martha Stewart also has a home near Bar Harbor and a custom color boat!
And for all that we did see, we did not see one whale, except this one at the landing.
