Set off early today and drove inland across Maine to get to the White Mountains in New Hampshire. It took 6 hours but was worth it. The roads widened, and towns became small homesteads and villages.Meer informatie

We've been very lucky and despite the forecasts have had sunny days every day, but today it's raining . Seems appropriate as we are a little sad this epic trip is coming to an end. Cheered ourselvesMeer informatie
