Our Honeymoon has Ended!

Our honeymoon has come to a end. We have traved over 4772+ miles from the time we left Mercer, WI on 9/23/07 and returned to Hartland, WI on 10/05/07.

Mileage breakdown:
Plane: 1047+
Car: 3725+

We had a great time, and we could not have asked for better weather, traffic, and time spent together. We would like to do it again in the future. It is a story we can share and an experience we will always remember.

Day 7 - 10/05/07 (part 2)

Departed New Castle, PA 03:00 pm (Eastern) Arrived Hartland, WI 11:00 pm (Central). Travel Distance: 558 (total 3445 miles since 9/29/07). After having lunch with Chris to celebrate his belated birthday we got on the road for the final leg of our honeymoon. This part of the road trip felt like it would take a life time. Crossing Ohio and Indiana is like watching paint to dry. It takes forever. However, after our day journey we are finally HOME!!! Because we are used to Eastern Time zone, and were not completely tired we unpacked, read our mail, and just relaxed. Welcome Back.

Day 6 - 10/04/07 (part 2)

Departed Bar Harbor, ME 6:15 am Arrived New Castle, PA 10:30 pm. Travel Distance: 935 (total 2887 miles since 9/29/07). The day of power driving, and heading home. So far our trip has been going great. Lucky for us, we are used to be in the car for long trips together. We are having a blast seeing the East Coast at 75 miles per hour. Since this is our first time, and we know that we have skipped many areas and missed so much. However, we are starting to make a mental list of sites we would like to see in the near future on another trip. Traffic has been great, except for when we missed our exit and had to do a detour. This only put us behind by 40 minutes and we ran into our only stand still traffic.

We stopped in New Castle, PA to visit Amber's brother Chris. We went to a local bar and had a few beers and wings. It was nice to see where he lives, and have a place to spend the night after a long day on the road.

Day 5 - 10/03/07 (part 2)

Bar Harbor, ME (all day). We are off to see the whales!!! However, the only thing we got to watch was the FOG! Our reservation was canceled due to fog, but we were able to go on a sailboat and see part of the coast, view lots and lots of lobster traps, and Amber was the first person to spot dolphins. We got to walk around Minocqua, sorry I mean, Bar Harbor and do some shopping. For two nights we are staying at the "Balance Rock Inn" and it has a great fog view of the ocean. Besides the fog we have had a great time and the once the fog did break it is such a peaceful environment.

Day 4 - 10/02/07 (part 2)

Departed Boston, MA 11:00 am Arrived Bar Harbor, ME 05:30 pm. Travel Distance: 301 (total 1952 miles since 9/29/07). We have finally reached our northern destination. We took our time driving up the coast, and passing through many small towns. The New England area reminded us very much of home, but we do recommend that everyone should see this part of the world. Amber tried a fresh Maine (whole) lobster, and it was not for her. I have to give her credit, I had steak. Tomorrow we have a reservation for whale watching and we are very excited!!
