We had a slow start to the day as the sky was cloudy and looked very threatening. The word was to expect scattered showers.
We had made some new biker friends at the motel we stayed at the previous night. Tammy and Steve. They had started out before us only to find that the route we needed to travel was under construction and we needed to make a detour. They came back and Steve said that his bike was making some strange sounds. we followed him to the Bangor Harley dealership. And all the girls needed to buy a long sleeve shirt as it was quite cool and damp. Tammy picked up a great leather Harley coat.
We went out for breakfast together and then separated.. Steve and Tammy were off for Halifax, and we made our way to Bar Harbour. They no longer have the cat boat to Nova Scotia. What a busy, busy town. Hard to get a parking spot. We did a quick walk around and then got on our way. Clouds and mist still haunting us.
Highway 1 follows fairly close to the coastline. We stopped in Machias so we could travel the coastline hopefully on a sunny day. We will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.
No evidence of Indians in this area, I'm sure we haven't seen the end of them tho'.
Steve & Tami here... We got back to Goderich late Wednesday night. The night after Newport we hit rain straight for 2 days. Halifax was nice and quiet and restful. We looked a real pair walking the main streets in out "Frogg Toggs".
ReplyDeleteWe lost about 4 days because of rain which made for a very... long last day back home (15hrs.)
The trip was about 2600 miles. Great to meet you guys (n gals) We'll keep our eye out for the Surona in Midland waters where the real indians are :)
