Honeymoon

I recently came across the memory card from the camera Steven had for the first week of our marriage. It reached it's tragic demise in the shallows of the Atlantic Ocean just off the shore of Maine. These are it's final pictures:

This is the little cottage we stayed in. It was so cute and we really enjoyed staying there. For pictures of the interior click here and you can take a virtual tour and everything as we did not get any pictures ourselves of the inside.


The harbor of Camden, ME and a very large yacht


We went for a bike ride one day that took us back around Camden then all along the coastline where there were some really beautiful houses.


This was one of our stops on our bike ride. It's called the Children's Chapel and it had really beautiful gardens all around it and it overlooks the water. A lot of people get married there which would be really lovely.



One day we went sailing on a schooner which was also the final voyage of our camera.


Steven looks so nautical.



We sailed to an island a ways off shore where we had a lobster dinner. This picture I find just so adorable. The little boy was on the schooner with us and the kitten lives on the island and begs bits of lobster from tourists.


Dinner. Between the two of us, Steven and I ate 5 lobsters in their entirety that night. They were amazing.





And the final picture our camera ever took before it fell off the railing it was sitting on into the water:

Steven actually stripped off his shirt and jumped in and retrieved it. He had a very chilly sailride back to mainland. It's hard to believe that it's been close to 2 years since that wonderful trip. We hiked, ate a LOT of seafood, looked around all the cute little villages, biked, sailed, golfed, and watched a few movies. It may forever be my favorite vacation not just because I did so many fun things in a place I love but because of the person I got to do them all with!
