Campobello Island to Bar Harbor

After a very filling breakfast at Peacock House, we made the very short drive to Campobello Island, over the bridge. The island, though connected to Lubec, is back in Canada in New Brunswick so we had to pass through Canadian customs again. The island is home to Franklin Delano Roosevelt's summer home which is administered jointly by the USA and Canada and was well worth a visit. We then drove to the lighthouse at the top of the island before setting off for Bar Harbor.

On the way back, we had to pass back through US Customs (for the third time this trip) and this time they didn't think Carole looked enough like her passport photo but after checking her driver's license and giving the vehicle a good looking over they let is back in.

The drive down to Bar Harbor didn't take too long and we had a elk around the harbour before dinner.
