A Visit to Acadia

A couple of months ago, on a long weekend, we visited the Acadia National Park, Maine. The national park is on the Mt.Desert Island of Maine and covers the Atlantic bays of that region. The two-day tour had been a wonderful experience laced with the scenic beauties of the island and a thrilling experience driving through the Park Loop Road that mostly circles through the park, touching the beautiful lakes and views of the mighty Atlantic.
The town nearest to the National Park is Bar Harbor. Walking through the downtown of Bar Harbor was also a memorable experience, a moment of festivity and joy touched my heart, walking along the winding roads passing garden restaurants, souvenir shops, ice-cream parlors and listening to the hustle-bustle of tourists and residents alike. Somewhere down the road we found a guy singing songs playing a keyboard.....and people sitting around, listening to him.....kids dancing to the rhythm.....:)
The tour was one of the most heart-warming experiences I had in recent times..

Today,thus I share some of the photographs taken on that tour to the Acadia National Park, with my friends here....

This sharing was long overdue, I feel now....:)
