Day of Rest - Worn Out!

We skipped the hotel breakfast this morning and went off to the 2cats which I found highly recornmended on TripAdvisor - breakfast from 7 am to 1pm and that's it for the day.

It was quite a walk from the hotel in bright sunny weather and we timed it just right because when we left 2cats there was a queue stretching down the path. Looking at the young age of everyone I would guess that they too looked it up on TripAdvisor - which shows how influential sites like TA are.

One if the cats showed himself, the other was on his break and we enjoyed the homemade granola with yoghurt and fruit. David wasn't mad on his pancakes but I loved the walnut cranberry muffin, fresh from the oven.

On the way back along Cottage Street I spotted Bee's yarn shop and of course made a bee-line for it while David kept on walking. The owner, Debbie and I had a lovely chat and she sold me more sock yarn which I'm looking forward to.

More walking around the streets where we continually met members of our group shopping and sightseeing. There was another cruise ship in the harbor and the shops were crawling with them By the time we'd done the shore walk past the millionaires' so-called cottages we were worn out and ready for a rest before dinner.

Last food description and our farewell dinner with Anne, Bill and Sue was fabulous!! We went to the Reading Room, chosen by a combination of name and TripAdvisor, and situated in Bar Harbor Inn on a headland overlooking the harbour - practically IN the harbour.
