One Day in Portland, Maine

One day with a car and I’d start on Industrial Way for Allagash, Battery Steele, Austin Street, and Foundation (good mix of styles). They are basically all next to each other. I’d skip Bissell Brothers but I think their beer is overrated considering the hype and superior competition all over town- plus they are a single destination which eats into your one day limit, and you can drink their stuff everywhere.

A cautionary tale when booking places to stay

A few weeks ago, Marjorie and I decided to go away for a weekend to cap off some vacation time. We wanted to go back to Camden, ME and try and do it inexpensively. She found a place called Bay View Aerie on HomeAway:

It should be noted that HomeAway is showing the place as available for the coming weekend. However, it is rented until Saturday the 29th.

Looks promising! Despite the weekly rate, inexplicably shown in Canadian dollars, the nightly was only USD $99.
