Bangor, ME 6/30

So we decided not to go to Mount Washington. The weather was supposed to be questionable and that would mean we would drive up it and not hike it. Aaron has already driven up it, so to be honest I will live without driving up it. This obviously changed our plans. We decided to stick around Bar Harbor and see if when we woke we could go back into Acadia with a better view.

This however was not the case. Thanks Maine! It was still limited visibility, so we just headed to Bangor, Maine where we decided we would crash for the night. I mean HELLO-- they have a casino! When we got to Bangor, our first stop was Tim Horton's for breakfast.

Sidebar: For those who are not a fan of How I Met Your Mother, you may have NO clue what a TH is. It is basically a Dunkin Donuts--- buttttttttttt not as good. Me and DD have a close alliance which I will NEVER EVER give up!

After hitting up TH for some breakfast, we decided it was time to do laundry. The suitcase was getting low and the car was beginning to smell. While we did laundry, we went and explored what one might consider "Downtown" Bangor. Holy crap! Spring Hill has more businesses than this place. And for some reason, they believe Sundays is a day where nothing gets sold. Who could blame them? There was absolutely NO ONE hanging around. You would think it was a ghost town. I WILL NEVER GO BACK!

To kill some time, we went to the movies. Hey Fast and the Furious 6. It was great. Driving. Unbelievable stunts. Poor acting. And one liners like: "You're not to bad for a criminal" or "Ride or Die" (CLASSIC F&F line!)

I just want it in print that we have left TWO casinos-- yes TWO-- up on the crap table. That's how we roll (pun intended). Now not saying we are up millions-- if I was up millions, you wouldn't even see me blogging... But I will take an extra $50 here or there whenever I can!

While in Bangor, their list of attractions were crazy-- the #10 best attraction was a Paul Bunyan statue.... No seriously... it really was. Please feel free to go on Tripadvisor.com to figure this out. I had a screenshot of my phone to prove it, but being in Canada limits my phone use! BOOOO! We drove around a bit to find this statue only to find out it is RIGHT across from the casino. However, since Bangor can be circled in about 3 minutes, this was not a problem.

We went to a couple bars, Geaghans was great. In house brewed beer and decent food. However, Impanedas sucked. The two bartenders had problems keeping or glasses full and there was a whopping 7 people n the restaurant. Good job ladies. They only charged us for three beers and honest Abe (a.k.a Aaron) told them we had four. They thanked him for being honest. And all I could think was how could you not keep track of that??

We finished the night at the hotel relaxing.

This morning we drove to Quebec. However, that post will come later. Aaron is "patiently" waiting to play his game before we hit the sac. Montreal the next two days!
