This past weekend we took our last family (of 3) vacation. Leaving it up to a google search, we planned a weekend in Camden Maine- approximately 4 hours up North! We read about the "winter fest" that was going on and figured we would just head up and see what it was all about. Arriving on Friday night we grabbed some pizza and ate with the 65+ crowd while listening to live jazz (apparently the woman at the hotel thought we would fit in with this crowd when she recommended it)! We then headed back and decided to try out the pool. We weren't sure what to expect but after splashing around the stairs for a while, Caelin got comfortable enough to go in. Within a half hour she was cheering on the boys who were jumping in and clinging to the 'noodles' while kicking her feet. The progression over the weekend was awesome to watch- by Sunday morning she was jumping off the side and blowing bubbles- she loved it! She proudly told everyone who walked by " I got swimmin'"! On Saturday we headed out into the snow to winter fest and saw some nice ice sculptures, watched lots of sledding, walked around the ice rink and listened to our new favorite jazz group in the library while sipping hot chocolate. All in all a wonderful afternoon! After walking around the shops we ended the day at Cappy's Pub for dinner and some yummy dessert. The it was back to swim, swim, swim!!!
Camden ME, 2011
No skates this year....still had fun!
So many "big boats' to look at!
Drinking hot chocolate like a big girl!
Best smile!!
Splashing around!
All tuckered out...slept like a log!!
Taking Lil Stinker for last chance (before bed) stair climb and run down the long hallway!
