New England

We've spent a lovely and relaxing couple of weeks back in the States. After handing over all of our firewood at the border (a pest problem they are trying to quarantine), we moved through Maine and then New Hampshire, mostly along the coast. The good news about these places is that the people are extremely friendly and the scenery is beautiful. We've been largely taking it easy, but some highlights included:

- Slogging up a small mountain in Maine; being rewarded with a superb view at the top.









- An awesome campground in Groton State Forest. We went kayaking on the lake and had a swim (the water was beautifully warm). At night steam rose off the lake and the stars were all shining brightly.- Visiting the Ben and Jerry's Ice cream factory today. Hours have passed and we still feel a bit ill.
