We almost didn't go into Bar Harbor this morning. We've been there before, and my recollection of it was a steep uphill street full of t-shirt shops. Besides which, it was only 6C, and there was a north wind blowing. But I was trying to get in touch with a friend to arrange our get together in Saint John tomorrow, and had no cell service on the ship, so onto the tender we went.
We had discussed the need for gloves and toques, but decided they weren't necessary. We were wrong - it was freezing! So we hightailed it up that steep street, past all the tourist traps, around the corner and out of the wind. What a great decision that turned out to be! It was sunny and warm(er), I got cell service, and there was the most fabulous store ...
We left with a much more favourable impression of Bar Harbour, a bag full of linens, and a date for tomorrow.
