Portland, Maine

Last weekend Michael and I decided to take a day trip up to Portland, Maine, just a 1 1/2 drive from Beverly. We both want to explore more of New England and are trying to do so little by little. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't our best friend: cloudy, chilly and overcast. We managed to fight hard, though, and successfully enjoyed this fun port town. Below are some pictures of our adventures.

We ate lunch at this cute little eclectic burrito stop, Wild Burritos. Go figure- Michael has to find his mexican everywhere! :)

And when I said eclectic, I meant it!

We then meandered around town, checking out all the "hot spots", the water, the good shopping, and pretty much all downtown Portland had to offer. Here is a rundown of our trip in pictures: The Portland Market, which unfortunately was not open.

Coffee stop at Arabica! Local coffee shop, check! The owner must have gotten inspiration from Boone NC!

Checking out the views on the dock.

A cool side street...that is Michael in the orange shirt on the left.

More New England adventures to come later this summer!
