Saturday – Monday September 5th – 7th.

We motored the 11 nm to Belfast, 44 25.71N 069 00.06W, on another hot, windless day. 

Teresa’s niece and husband have a summer home on Unity Pond, Maine, which is only 25 miles from Belfast.  We were invited for the long weekend.  Debbie picked us and our bikes up on Saturday.  Stan took us for a boat ride around their beautiful lake.  We partied Saturday night with them and their neighbours.  

On Sunday, Teresa and Ron took the kayaks out on the lake in the morning, then Debbie, Stan and neighbours had a fish fry in the afternoon.  All in all a jolly good time!  On Monday, Teresa and Ron biked back to the boat and Debbie and Brandon drove out for a sail.  They were really lucky – the winds picked up in the afternoon for a beautiful beam reach down Penobscot bay, followed by a change of wind direction and a pleasant run back home. 

Finished the day with a very nice dinner in Belfast before Debbie and Brandon headed home.
