Highway 1, Belfast, and Bar Harbor 9/24

Entered Highway 1 along the coast. Stopped in Belfast, Maine for lunch. Friends told us that 20 years ago Belfast had a chicken plant right along the water-- you could watch the body parts float by... Very different now- pretty.

We arrived in Bar Harbor around 3:00. Incredibly busy tourist town. We stayed with our cycling friend Dean and his wife Penny. They cooked lobsters and taught us the fine art of de-shelling the meat. After five nights of camping, a bed, bath, and laundry were very much appreciated.
