I spent 27 yrs in Maine. You missed sooooo much. Next time drive US RT#1 all the way up the coast. I lived in a small town called Bucksport which has a bridge with an observation tower in it. At the base there is Fort Knox which is a unique fort that was built to protect the Penobscot River from the advancement of the French. There are lots of off the beaten path things to see and do in Maine. Bar Harbor is very touristy and just a small taste of what the "REAL MAINE"hasto offer. I liked the video though. I now live in sunny TN and enjoy what the south has to offer. Thanks for the videos of your trip, they are great.
love your videos and love you, too (as a friend)! My family & I spent 13 summer vacations in a cottage in Damariscotta , Maine & loved it! It is near New Harbor, my favorite place in the world--a place I'd love to be right now!
Hi Slawson, wow what a nice compliment, thank you. It is great to hear that we shared something of value. We did love going and wish to get back someday. Hope your trip is wonderful.
Letting you know that your last 2 videos did not show up in my subscriptions on the home page. This started happening with a few other subscriptions and I thought you needed to know so you can tell the powers to be at the RU-vid. Great videos as usual.
Olaf, thank you so much for your kind note. I love how I can explore the world from my desk... We really would like to get to your part of the world someday. Cheers Dan
Thanks so much.. I don't think a day goes by I don't have some sort of fond memory of New England. I just love it there. Rhode Island is probably my favorite. We plan a drive to Montreal and Quebec City in the future. It would be fantastic to drive through Vermont then and do so in the fall.. Thanks again.
Hi NJ kidd, Thanks for your interest, we are from North Carolina. My favorite place in New England was Newport RI and my wife, Janet, loved Acadia National Park in Maine
First things first. CONGRATS how exciting... Yes definitely made a great choice. Although I am old and to stiff to do as much hiking as we used to, we saw folks rock climbing, and kayaking along the wonderful rocky shore, we saw folks hiking and biking and more... Yes Acadia is one of the most beautiful places we have ever seen you made an excellent choice. I have seen several Merrell ads for hiking and running shoes credited/filmed there.
@dmccoig Probably a hitch the RU-vid getty up :) My senior class trip was a cruise to the Bahamas. About 150 went and the first night the seas were really rolling. Only me and one other guy were at the first dinner....the rest were in their rooms having their own Festival of Nausea.
Dan Love this Video to main? Great effect your so creative thanks love this wish i could have Gone? sorry about your winsield? LL beans expenseive? Great story and naration Troy
we spend a week there every year. you have to be there at the right time to see puffins, and if you had seen them, you would have had a different opinion about the whale watch. they are amazing little birds. so curious, they fly right up to the boat.
@enjoythevoyage Well Marion we love you and your friendship as well! Thanks for the kind words and I cant wait until we can go back to Maine. We fell in love with the whole state!
@capo420420 Wow, thats cool Jeff, I saw people rock climbing and I wished we could have kayaked a little but time ran out. We LOVE Acadia, maybe we will get to go back someday. I have been meaning to check out your latest video, I saw where you posted a new one after so long.
Your video came up thru a google search while doing some research for an impromptu trip to Bar Harbor and Bass Harbor from our home in Ontario, in a couple of weeks.It looks lovely and is exactly what we are looking for. I just wanted to thank you for putting it together, it is very informative and your editing and cutaways are top-notch. I will enjoy perusing your other videos on your channel as well.
@jaxdevan Thanks Jack, we did have the most wonderful popovers in New Hampshire and at Jordan Pond House in Acadia.. It is like being in the Smokies except with an ocean! Love it there
@rj63227 That is so strange, I will send them a note, I won't describe the Festival Of Nausea in detail, but oh my I felt so bad for the people who did get sick.
If you live in USA you never have to go somewhere else since you have big cities, mountains, beaches, woods etc What a great country! x have a great weekend and hope you will join our Christmas collaboration! x
@cookingupastory Oh Hey Rebecca! I dislike the new comment system on youtube. I didn't see all of these nice words down at the bottom of my screen. Thanks and I hope Y'all have a great holiday.
Hi Dan. Getting married this June and i've secretly booked my honeymoon (surprise for herself). 4 nights in New York City and 10 nights in Bar Harbor. We're very much outdoor activity people. Did I make a good choice with Bar Harbor you think??
