First day of travel

Due to internet connection problems, this posting is one day late.
Thanx to Bill Miller's excellent planning, getting lined up at the park in Bar Harbor was a cinch. The waves were all in order, the route was planned and AWAY WE WENT. The trip up to the border crossing was uneventful except for a somewhat lumpy road.

The border crossing went quite well for 16 of the 17 coaches, and as with any large group, there had to be a sacrificial lamb. Guess who it was. We got the white slip and had the coach inspected inside and out. Nothing serious, they were just doing their job. However, When the Simonis' came thru, Bob didn't feel obligated to stop on the white line. Talk about loud sirens and scurrying border gaurds. Well, nobody went to jail and on to the campground.

As far as ratings go, the Kiwanis Oeanfront Camping park is top of the line. Beautiful ocean view (the tide was in); wideopen sites; and sunny weather. By the time everybody arrived, Bill and his parking crew had the sites lined up and we slipped right in. Happy hour commenced. The potluck dinner was at the pavillion and talk about good food! With full bellies, we all waddled back to the rigs to enjoy the rest of the day. At 9:30 it was still light out so we are getting the full benefits of long days.
