But on the way there, we stopped at our "new favorite Maine art gallery" - Maine Art Hill in Kennebunkport:
Aside from being a really nice place, they have a current exhibition of new works by an artist we really like - Craig Mooney:
And the rest of the place is pretty nice too:
We had a nice lunch at Federal Jack's, with its nice upper-deck view:
Made it to Portland for our 2 PM tickets. Highlights include:
