If you ever
come to Maine, there is a trip worth taking.
It is a boat trip out to Cabbage Island on the Bennie Alice.
My wife and
I and another couple took the trip Wednesday.
We shopped at all the tourist shops in Boothbay Harbor before boarding the Bennie Alice at
12:00 (Noon.)
The trip out took one
hour, viewing the numerous islands and three light houses.
Once on the Island we were treated to a great
Lobster shore dinner.
| Fresh lobsters and clams being steamed in seaweed |
| You walk down to the cooking area to pick up your plate. there are picnic tables outdoors and indoors seating. |
We spent about an
hour after eating, exploring the small Island, before boarding the boat for the trip
back to Boothbay Harbor.
| Two Maine Coon Cats on the Island. Doing what Maine Coon Cats do best. A big boy, about twenty pounds. |
The trip back
only took thirty minutes.
The weather
was great: low eighties and overcast with a cool sea breeze.
