On to Camden ctd

Shortly after leaving Mount Desert Island the sun was out. It was only a short drive to Camden so we decided to stop on the way.

As we drove through the town of Bucksport, we saw a fort over the river which looked worth a visit. We went around a corner and then over a huge new cable span bridge over the Penobscot River. We turned off at the sign for Fort Knox and ended up paying to visit an observatory at the top on the bridge as well as Fort Knox.

Both were spectacular and the view from the top of the bridge was stunning. They had had to build it when the bridge next door was declared unsafe.
