Bar Harbor Maine Trip

Andy, Cassie, and Lily went to Bar Harbor, Maine for a week for an anesthesia conference while Hannah and Chloe stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Kumpel at our house.  We went with our good friends, Josh and Jessica Halverson.  We had a fabulous time.  We arrived in Bar Harbor and were upgraded to the West Street Hotel.  The place had just opened a couple months ago.  We had a two room suite.  It was very nice!
This is Jordan Pond in Acadia National Park.  One more park closer to our lifetime goal :) 
We ate lunch at the Jordan House Pond restaurant then we went on the 3.2 mile loop around the pond. 

Lily was such a great traveler.  We almost forgot that she was there at times.  She just went right along with all of our adventures. 

This is Thunder Hole


Andy is always trying to get wet :) 


The sunset on Cadillac Mountain

We went on a Lobster Tour with Captain John on Lula.  It was a very educational and fun adventure.  We decided to do a farm to table experience.  After going on the lobster boat, we went to a lobster bake for dinner. 
There were a bunch of seals along the rocks, but it is hard to see. 

Here is an example of a lobster trap. 

We learned how to tell if the lobster was a male or female, along with a ton of other information.
