Day Two is for Driving

For long boring bureaucratic reasons, we had to drop our SLR camera off in Enfield, Connecticut on our way to Acadia National Park, ME, so that the camera's exposure problem could be fixed. (Turns out it wasn't our crappy camera skills after all). This deviation put us off course for the quickest route to Acadia. Never fear! The interstate highway is here! That's right, we cruised 4 states in one day to make it to Acadia well before nightfall on day two of our journey. The USA is connected by a series of very impressive highways, hence the “Interstate”.  From Connecticut to Massachusetts to New Hampshire to Maine, we traveled on a three to four lane highway with forests on either side, which only break from time to time to make way for a McDonald's or a Wendy's, or an Exxon or Caltex “gas” station. This doesn't make for particularly interesting driving, but it does get you from A to B super fast.

Mottos for the states we passed through today:

Connecticut
He Who Transplanted Still Sustains

Massachusetts
By the Sword We Seek Peace, But Peace Only Under Liberty

New Hampshire
Live Free or Die

Maine
I Direct
