A Spanish Look at Camden.

Ana Arasanz, a travel writer from Spain, stayed with us at the end of her class at the Acadia Center for English Immersion. Acadia Center is a great school that hosts those wishing to improve their English language skills through immersion in the culture. We have been priviledged to have some of their students stay with us at the Captain Swift Inn. Enjoy Ana's comments and photos of her stay during Lobster Fest.

A Great Trail To Explore!!

Maine Wine TrailJune 13th, 2010 . by admin
What comes to mind when you think of a Maine? The rocky coast? Mountains? Lobster? Seals, whales and puffins? How about wineries? Probably not. Yet Maine has 15 wineries, the majority of which are located along that rocky coast. Summer is a great time to plan a Maine vacation including a trip along the Maine Wine Trail and the Sebasco Harbor Resort in Sebasco Maine makes a great home base for exploring Midcoast Maine and making a scenic day trip along the Maine Wine Trail.
With 7 wineries concentrated in the area, Mid Coast Maine is a great spot to focus your travels.
Anyone followed this trail, yet?

Children's Vesper Chapel
