Are ya taking the ferry from portland? Scotia prince?
Check out Cape Brenton. Its where Alexander Gram Bell lived and invented about 90 things. Theres a nice museam with alot of his inventions.
He built a tetrahedrial kite that was unreal! It predated the airplane and could lift huge loads.
He also developed a windtunnel for testing aerodynamic properties.
This guy invented a lot, more than just the telephone.
Its at the top of nova scotia and is well worth the trip.

Hey Y2K,
Yeah, I went on a bike trip up there on my ZX10 in 1994. That trip we rode the whole way through New Brunswick, did the Cabot Trail and toured around, then took the Bluenose back to Bar Harbor. Just think if Bell was into bikes!
This year we're taking the Scotia Prince tomorrow night. It's great to be able to travel while the bike is all comfy under deck and I'm all comfy at the bar! I go with my buds I grew up with in Ridgefield. A ZX9R, A Busa, and an 88 Hurricane. Poor Jim on the Hurricane has to wring it out to keep up past cars, but being an ex-national level roadracer he has no problem in the corners!
Well i'm just about done packing and am going to give my 4 year old a bath before he goes to bed. Life is good. See yall soon! Maybe a Marcus in the next few weeks if stuff falls together?
