Today's Island Explorer shuttle took us along the coastline of Acadia NP. Large pink granite slabs of rock and boulders line the coast of Acadia NP and the ocean today was quite gentle and very clear.
Sand Beach was a stop along our route where swimmers enjoy the cool refreshing waters of the Atlantic. We, instead, elected to take a walk along the coastal trail to another spot called Thunder Hole. Thunder Hole is a small inlet, naturally carved out of the rocks, where the waves roll into. At the end of this inlet, down low, is a small cavern where, when the rush of the wave arrives, air and water is forced out like a clap of distant thunder.
From Thunder Hole we boarded another shuttle to the North Bubble Mount parking lot where I got off to take a short hike to the summit of North Bubble. Paula (Margaret) remained on the shuttle and returned to our campground.
It was a good hike to the summit of North Bubble and the views were wonderful. This summit overlooks Jordan Pond and Eagle Lake.
Tomorrow we will be traveling into New Brunswick, Canada. Hopefully we will continue to have internet capability so I can keep up the blogg.
