A local look see

Today it was a chance to see some great things local in Rockland that Jo and Chris had jacked up for us. Today we looked at Owls Head Transportation Museum and went down to Spruce Head Island to McLoons Lobstah Shack for lunch: not too bad 😁







Mr McComb talking to us here worked for Shelby and raced cars in Britian for quite a number of years; he also knew and raced with NZ drivers. He made the museum visit.








I was expecting something a little up market than what we got but it was very good all the same. All the lobsters are cooked very fresh i.e. they are kept alive in a plastic bin with a lid in the harbour. Whenever they need some to cook they lift the bin out, grab a few and cook them! it is illegal to do anything different. While we were here it started to rain and but the time we were ready to leave it was coming down cats and dogs, by the time we got back to our lodgings we were wet; Judy and I decided it would be a good time to warm up in the spa bath which we did for a lovely soak before joining Robert and Kathy for a couple of drinks then everyone else for a few more and pizza!

Tomorrow it is into Canada.
