Very atypical of us, but we were NOT on a cruise. We were visiting Maine in our motorhome, and stopped for a few days in Bar Harbor. This town is popular with cruise lines, hence the ship anchored in the harbor. The rock formations of the harbor are interesting, a feature often applied to the entire coast of Maine. The folks in the foreground are probably crew members, not cruise passengers or idle tourists like ourselves. This photo was taken in 2011. Over the next few years, we took several cruises on the Maadam. I believe that she has been recently sold. Image processed with GIMP.

The facade of the Bar Harbor Post Office. A 'classic' design created in the 1920's or 1930's. The interior has been maintained and restored, and looks very good. Image processed with GIMP.
