We got checked out of the Marathon Inn this morning, and drove around the island some more on our own. The ferry left at 11:30 for its 90 minute trip to the mainland. Another couple left at the same time we did, so the time passed quickly with nice folks to talk to.
When we got to Black Harbour, we headed on down the road toward the border crossing at Calais, ME. No problems there, either. We finally got on to I-95, and pretty much sailed south to a stop in Lewiston, ME. Dinner was a definite come-down. John had a good meal of fried clams and scallops. I had a lobster roll (who can leave Maine without having had lobster), and it was pretty much tasteless. Granted, I'm not a big lobster fan - blue crabs are SO much better and tastier. But anyhow - I did have the required lobster.
John's doing well with his hand. Although he found out tonight that he can't write enough to do the crossword puzzle in USA Today.
We'll be making arrangements tonight to meet up with Marjorie in Boston tomorrow sometime. For those who might not know, Marjorie was our exchange student from Venezuela in the mid1970s for about 9 months. She's living in the US now, so it'll be a real treat to see her.
