101 Things I Love about Greater Portland...








17. Easy day trips to fun places like Camden Maine. I travelled to Camden today in under 2 hours. Of course it was quicker without the summer Route One traffic but a nice place to visit any time of year. You can also hit Rockland and Rockport if you want to see even more of the area. There are lots of restaurants. I ate at the Boynton-McKay which is a fun spot from an old apothecary/ soda fountain. There are still lots of nostalgic bottles and drugstore items on the shelves and a tin ceiling. You eat in cozy booths.
Lots of delicious items for breakfast including handmade donuts. I had a delicious scramble with fresh veggies.
The small downtown area has lots of cute boutiques and specialty shops including a mall with antiques, crafts, and clothes. The harbor is spectacular. Take a cruise in the summer. Cappy's on the corner has great Maine atmosphere and good grub.
