rough day

after a very long travel day arrived at maine destination where it was still hot and humid....but the itinerary had been mapped out so first day trekked to a very chic lobster shack where we dined in the rough on fresh delicious fish!  the vistas right off the travel brochure but so typical of any small fishing village...
this photo could have been snapped at any one of fish piers all along the coast....nothing fancy at all but the view and the delicious fresh food prepared simply--no CIA-trained chefs need apply!  
and no coastal trip would be complete without a finish like this....

a stop at our favorite lobster pound then scooted back to pop them in a hot pot for several yummy lobster rolls, again prepared simply without celery, lettuce, herbs or fancy bread....just a new england style top cut bun, some mayo and the lobster....fancy chefs take note!

  1. Wow! I recognize that dock! I can practically see it from my desk (not quite!). Five Islands is only 6 miles from where I work. Hope you have a super time in Maine!! I also hope a trip to Cyndi's is on your list. I'm going to try to make it up on Saturday, but plans have a way of falling apart these days! Have fun!

    Lobster from the working side of the dock is always best. I'm drooling too! I hope your vacation with family is wonderful...and that it cools off a bit!
