New Hampshire

So Long Kendall Hotel
We had some difficulty getting our car out of the tiny parking lot under the hotel.  We had a pillar and a car on either side and two posts behind us that were in front of the elevator.  I could picture the moves necessary from outside the car, but not while I was in the car.  Luckily, there were some men working in the garage, so three of them helped get the very tight car (VTC) out.  We drove about an hour to Portsmouth.  We toured a submarine currently docked in a ditch.  It was very interesting to walk through it and imagine living in it with 50 others under the water.

We had lunch at Fat Belly, a place I felt very comfortable at.  The town is very quaint and had lots of cute shops near the water front.  We enjoyed some fun shopping and also took the Portsmouth Harbor Cruise.  The seats were all taken so we stood at the front (bow?) of the ship and enjoyed the wind and great views. 
  



After leaving Portsmouth, we stopped briefly in Kennebunk, ME trying to find the Tom's of Maine store, but it was no where to be found.  So we drove on to Portland.  We are staying at a nice, normal place with plenty of parking.
