I'm not sure which I like best, but each is breathtaking in Camden. The sunsets were taken from the deck of the schooner Appledore II during their sunset cruise with John and Liz on September 15th, 2009. She winters in Key West, returns annually to Maine in June with the same core set of four crew members among whom Matt stands out as the 'character'! They specialize in very spicy Bloody Marys, but I cannot personally affirm, since my libation was a rather large can of Labatts Blue which lasted the full two hours of the cruise. Matt noted that they will take on additional crew from time to time, but that when ice begins to form on the rigging, the 'temps' head for shore.
Sunrises are just spectacular in Camden Harbor, even with a little cloud cover. Braving the 40 degree weather was worth it to Jenny and me. How many of these does one see?Camden Harbor is very protected in most weather, but is sublime in the really calm conditions that prevail this week. A working port, it awakens shortly after dawn with most of the activity centering around the Wayfarer Marina, where currently, dismasting sailboats and craning them up to dry storage occupies most of the employees.
