After a brief nap after the whale watch, we went to Acadia National Park. Arlene noticed that I’m old enough to get a senior pass to all national parks for the rest of my life for $10! Wow! that’s half the regular one day admission charge for a car just for Acadia! There was one more admission checkpoint to go through, where I pulled out the card and said, “Woo hoo! I’m a geezer!”
Acadia is known for mountaintop views over the ocean and rocky shores. We didn’t get up the mountains, but we did see plenty of rocky shore, like this

There was also a lovely lake, Bubble Pond, where we stopped and walked briefly. But after walking a mile to downtown Bar Harbor for the whale watch and a mile back, we didn’t feel the need for a lot more walking exercise.
