The crows woke us at the crack of dawn which opened into a spectacular sunshiny day. After a nice civilized breakfast of eggs and sausages cooked over the camp stove - yum! we needed to go in to Ellsworth to get Aliya a bathing suit (which she forgot at home). So off we trekked to the nearby Wal-Mart. While there we picked up some more camping supplies that we found would come in handy (citronella candle, vinyl tablecloth, some dish towels and so on. Since we were in Ellsworth we had to go to the L.L. Bean's Factory Outlet store. After shopping at Bean's we returned to the camp site for a sandwich lunch and then decided to go to the nearby fun-park for a round of mini-golf. The day was blazing hot and mini-golf was fun but the freaking course was like for pro-golfers or something; the putting degree of difficulty: v. high (or maybe it's just that we all suck at golf...). After mini-golf, we decided to go back in to Bar Harbor and have a nice seafood supper to cap off the day.

That evening we tried to burn off the rest of our "seasoned" campfire wood but realized we would have to leave some pieces for the next campers to that site. Although the day was hot, we had noticed some clouds moving in threatening rain - and did it rain overnight.! It freaking poured.
