Portland Children's Museum

On our last day in Maine, we had a relaxing morning before saying goodbye to all our Forseter housemates and heading to Portland for one last vacation adventure.  But first, we looked at several shops for a Maine sweatshirt for Finley. After three attempts, success!

We drove the hour to Portland and then picked up some pizza to eat in what we thought was a park but turned out to be a food truck haven with tables and benches.  Ah well, plenty of space to eat and lots of pigeons to chase, so it worked out.  

After lunch, we headed over to the much raved about Portland Children's Museum.  It was AMAZING and totally lived up to all the hype we had heard and read about!! Both kids had a terrific time going in all different directions on two floors for nearly two hours and only when we realized how late it was getting did we have to drag them out.  Pure bliss.  Too many photos to caption, so just enjoy them!

 Blast off!

 We did it all and could've gone back the next day to do it all again!  We walked back to the car and by the time we were cruising on the highway back to Massachusetts, both kids were snoozing away for a nice quiet ride home.

What an excellent way to end our wonderful week in Maine!
