Penobscot Bay







The traffic wasn't as bad as I expected of an August Friday afternoon on northbound Route One. Rockland looked great and I went out to the breakwater at the north end of town. It would have been fun to walk out to the end, but I've got to keep going.

I worked my way up the west side of the bay, stopping briefly in Camden and Lincolnville. There was a neat little estuary at the mouth of a stream north of Camden. From the small spit at its entrance you can look back at the Route 1 bridge, which is much more interesting than you'd realize just driving across.

Penobscot Bay was full of boats - it will probably be even busier once the weekend really arrives.
