On our fifth day in Acadia National Park, we went to Two Cats for breakfast in Bar Harbor. Our friends Dawn and Jeff recommended this place. |
You can eat inside or out on the porch. |
We left Mallery out in the car, and sat on the porch so I could keep an eye on her. It was cool on the porch, so I had to wear a jacket. |
Joe is happy, because I told him, I would buy our breakfast. |
This is one of the cats the restaurant was named after. |
The cafe only serves breakfast, but serves until 1:00PM |
This is George, one of the cats. I never saw the other cat. |
After breakfast, we went to Jordon's Pond to walk the Jordon Pond Path. |
The first two thirds of the the length of the pond was on a board walk. |
While walking on the boards, I saw two mushrooms real close to each other. |
Across the pond there was a large flock of birds. |
The Jordon Pond Path is a 3.2 mile loop. |
Mallery walked most of the path on this side of the pond. |
Then we came to the rocky part of the path. |
Mallery was able to jump from boulder to boulder as well. She was really enjoying the walk. Most of it was in the shade. |
This picture shows you how clear the water was. You can see the large boulder further out in the pond. |
Looking back toward where we came from. From this point we are unable to see the whole pond. |
Still walking the boulder path, but relatively easy. |
We finally get to the gravel path. |
It was so nice doing a hike and not worrying about bears! |
There were a couple of kayaks on the pond. |
Almost to the other end of the pond. |
Once we crossed the bridge, we start back on the other side of the pond. |
This trail is rated moderate. |
On the other side of the pond, we look back toward the bridge. |
This side of the pond was mostly in the sun, |
but the path was much easier to walk on than the boulders and the two board boardwalk. |
We passed a couple pushing a stroller, and hoped they were planning on turning around and coming back the same side, or they were going to have a rough time. |
We cross the end of the pond , and nearing our starting point. My left foot was becoming numb, so I was glad we were almost done. |
View of out flow of the pond. |
Back at the view of Bubble Rock. |
Lots of people either ending or beginning the trail. It was the weekend, and parking was not easy to find for this hike. |
