Day 7.186: Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and the Maine State Aquarium

We crammed a lot in on Saturday. This is how some of it looked.

In the morning we visited the delightfully designed and very well kept Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens.

As you can see, we saw different kinds if dragonflies, a red squirrel, a pitcher plant "eating" a bee, whales, lobster fishing, flowers and sculptures:


After lunch, we continued on to the Maine State Aquarium - a modest-sized but charming aquarium dominated by local sea-life including lobsters small and large, tiny baby horseshoe crabs, moon jellies and a are-you-as-tall-as-a-huge-lobster chart. We also had a walk around in Boothbay Harbor and saw a woodchuck outside our motel-room window.
