We took a bus to the South Ridge hiking trail over Cadillac
Mountain. It was a beautiful hike to the
summit where there was a parking lot and hundreds of ‘tourists’. We continued the hike down the other side (with
stunning views of Frenchman’s Bay) to where we were expecting to pick up a bus
to take us home. The buses run very much
to schedule, so after waiting for ½ hour and the bus was 10 minutes late, we
called the bus company who informed us we were waiting at the wrong place. By now we had missed the last bus, so started
hitch hiking. A park ranger stopped,
(didn’t arrest us for illegal hitch hiking), and dropped us at the welcome
center where we picked up a bus to Bar Harbor, then another to NE harbor and
Quinita. We picked up some take out
lobster rolls in Bar Harbor, got back to the boat at around 8:30pm, had a quick
and much needed shower, and dined aboard.
