It rained overnight but it was nothing compared to what we’ve been hearing about in the rest of the country.  No tornadoes or high winds  for us (knock on wood).  We left Portsmouth and drove up the coast about an hour to Kennebunkport, Maine.

Downtown Kennebunkport

It’s a small town, only about 6,000 population, but there are several other small towns very close to each other around here.  We walked around downtown and saw some great gift shops and eateries.  This is an old ship building community and there are many big beautiful old captain’s houses in the area.  It’s absolutely beautiful here.

A 45 minute narrated trolley tour took us around town, by some big homes and hotels, and along the seashore to see the sights.

Dark Shadows House

The tour guide said that this house was used in the opening scenes from the old Dark Shadows TV series from the 1960’s.
