Day 8 and 9

We made it to Rhode Island!  The past few days have been a pleasant ride down I95 (as pleasant as you can get on an interstate paying the Maine turnpike tolls!)  The temperature is a cool 68F riding and you couldn’t ask for better temperature on a motorcycle.  We left Nova Scotia on Day 8 and rode across all of New Brunswick.  Our destination for the end of day 8 was Bar Harbor (or, if you are a local ‘bah haba’).  New Englander’s have 1 letter less in their alphabet - the R.  We had a nice dinner on the harbor at sunset.  This was my first time eating a lobster and it was great!  A little messy, but I liked it.  It took me a minute to get used to tearing open a crustacean for the meat.  After dinner we walked around through some gift shops.  Bar Harbor is very touristy, but still a cool little place.  We camped that night in Acadia Natl park which was a treat.  We spent the next morning on the top of Cadillac mountain over looking the Acadia natl.  After the park, we jumped on I95 and headed south through Augusta Maine and ended our 9th day outside of West Warwick RI.  We met up with my old college friend, Janna, and had a great dinner over the local IPA brew and a killer pizza.  A lot of the locals had just recently had their power turned back on after being out for a week from the hurricane. 

We are hoping to head into Brooklyn today and stop at Cafe Moto for lunch.  Maybe some NYC shenanigans are in order for later today and tonight.
