Day 40 – Winterport, ME to Boston, MA

Day 40 of #BoxsterRoadTrip and we reached Boston!

This blog is posted a day late because, when we arrived on Friday night, the Boston traffic stressed us out so much, we just had to take a night off from blogging.  So, it is a little late.

IMG_3005IMG_3013We left the lovely Airbnb “Colonial House in Quiet River Town” and headed south to Boston.  The first stop was at a Starbuck’s (of course).  The weather was cool but sunny, so we put the top down and continued on.  The colors are finally starting to make Jo happy!

 

 

IMG_3019IMG_3022As we continued south, the colors continued to improve.

 

IMG_3028Jo’s cousin, Mabel, recommended that we stop for lunch at Billy’s Chowder House in Wells, Maine (just south of Kennebunkport, the summer home of former President George H W Bush).  Another lobster for Jo!  Mabel’s suggestion was spot on.

IMG_3024We continued on, crossed into New Hampshire and then into Massachusetts.  We stopped in Salem for a few groceries and then onto Boston.  After leaving Salem, the driving got a little bit stressful – it was Friday night, heavy traffic and unfamiliar territory.  We finally pulled into Marriott’s Custom House around 8:00 pm, where we will be staying for a week.  A little “down time”, a chance to do laundry and, of course, do some sightseeing and eat more lobster!

Even though we are staying in one place for a week . . .

The journey continues. . .
