Ni hao! (Hello in Chinese...pronounced "knee how")<br><br>We are now one week away from our departure and realizing that next week at this time we will be in the air over the Pacific and headed to China! The accumulating of stuff is coming to an end and the real packing is beginning. The girls love the whole packing thing...their mother...not so much. Excitement is in the air as the count down begins. <br><br>We are looking forward to ...

... a ride on an authentic old time train around the city's harbor and see many of the extraordinary sites that have stood for decades.<br> Most of the city is compact and perfectly walkable. There is so much to see and do that you will never feel bored or disappointed. One thing for sure, you definitely will not go hungry or run out of places to shop! The Old Port District is the historic side of Portland, and it is a wonderful area reminiscent of America's humble beginnings.

After the smog and the grime of NYC, I thought that some clean air would probably do me good so I have been in New England for the last few days. I've been in all 6 of the NE states at one point or another and have done a fair bit of driving but some of the places I have seen are beautiful and well worth the miles I've been clocking up. I'm sure that if I was the sort of person who knew a lot ...

we sailed into boothsbay in the dark (as usual). we only had limited lights, so it was a crew effort to communicate with chris who was motoring the boat in via GPS coordinates and autopilot. <br><br>"boat at 1 o'clock!" <br><br> "mooring at 11 o'clock!" <br><br> we successfully docked (at the wrong dock than planned but we docked none the less). we had hoped to get farther up the coast but the last few days had been light wind (cary said ...

... in cold snow for the majority of the year i'd consider moving there.<br><br>for lunch we sailed up to a seafood restaurant called Cook's. we had a slight buoy mishap, that sent me running around the small bay to save the buoy but it was also the first exercise i'd had in days so that was good.<br><br>lunch at Cook's was a-w-e-s-o-m-e. we had steam-ahs and fresh maine lobstah in maine. simple boiled lobstah. it was awesome.<br>

... We have a 27mile coach tour booked which takes us to Acadia National Park Mountains / Forests / Glaciers!<br><br>Saw some of the memorials taking place for 9/11 today. Flags at half-mast. Strange to see it while in USA and especially as we were there a couple of days ago.<br><br>Hope all well back in "Old England"...<br>Lots of Love, from "New England" - Love Paul &amp; Laura xx

El día ha empezado bien. Con langosta. No hemos aguantado mucho y, hoy mismo, nos hemos ido al restaurante que teníamos aquí al lado donde tu llevas la bebida, pides las langostas, las cogen de unas mini-piscinitas al lado tuyo, empiezan a patalear mientras las pesan y en un rato te la llevan al plato. Pero antes, queremos ponerle banda sonora. Os dejamos el enlace a este temazo de B-52 titulado Rock lobster. El rock de la langosta: http ...

Ooooh pretty! The place of postcards! Cruise: Day 3 Todays stop was Portland, Maine. We arrived at Portland just before 7am, WAY to early for my liking, I don't do mornings.. But anyway, our tour started at 8:15, and I still wanted to have time for breakfast, so I had to do mornings today. Portland is a beautiful place, and the weather was stunning today (27 Degrees / 80 Fahrenheit).  They say we where very lucky with ...
