Our version of rock climbing...

Today, Aaron and I went on a little adventure to Cape Elizabeth, ME. I was in search of some lighthouses. So we started at Two Lights State Park. We followed the signs to see the lighthouses. And while we found one, it was really disappointing. It wasn't that great and you couldn't get near the place. There were 'No Trespassing' signs everywhere. So we called that a wash and headed to the park area. And it was better than I thought it was going to be!

We found a great spot over looking the ocean to have our picnic.

After the picnic we headed down the coast climbing on rocks all the way. This is what the coast looked like both ways.

I figured out how to use my tri-pod!

We had a ton of fun climbing on the rocks.

This was not a good angle for a picture. Somehow I made my 6'2 husband look like a midget!

There were lots of waving crashing. I caught this splash at a good time.

This wave almost got me.

Aaron trying not to get splashed.

Too late! ha ha!

After the state park we drove to Freeport, ME (which was on the way home). Aaron needed some hiking shoes and Freeport is known for having over 170 retail stores and outlets. We only went there to check out the L.L. Bean and The North Face outlets, but it made me excited to go back someday and wander around. The great thing about Freeport is that it is only about 10 miles away! Anyway, Aaron was able to get his shoes 50% off at The North Face outlet! We were both excited about the great deal.

To end the day we ate at the Big Top Deli. It was a great recommendation from my new friend Sara! I will blog about her soon. I hope you all had a great Saturday filled with fun and laughter just like us!
