BAR HARBOR, MAINE, USA-OCTOBER 30. BACK IN THE GOOD OLE USA!!!!!!

We had a private 1/2 day tour with a driver/guide and Arlene and Bill Barris from Michigan.
Bar Harbor is a quaint little town with a population of 2,500.  It was the summer retreat of millionaires and had magnificent estate homes in the early 1900’s.  The biggest national attraction is ACADIA NATIONAL PARK which consists of more than 47,000 acres/73 square miles, most of which was donated by the Rockefeller family to the US government more than 100 years ago.  It has CADILLAC MOUNTAIN which is the highest peak and has breathtaking views of the rocky coast and many offshore isles.
