We made a special effort to go to the Roosevelt Campobello International Park, and are so glad we did. It's about 2 hours north/northeast of Bar Harbor, and usually we don't allot enough time to go. But this trip was specifically for coming to the park, and we are so glad we did. It's a small for an international park, and surprisingly uncrowded; the docents are well trained and versed on FDR history and have many delightful tales about the family and the place they would spend some of their summers. The guided tour is excellent, and there are a wealth of books and mementos in the small gift shop in the visitor center. We opted to do the Tea With Eleanor at 3:00, which was well worth the nominal cost to attend. It is easy to understand why this was such a special haven to FDR and his family; the natural beauty is breathtaking and out of the mainstream of life. We came the first week of July, and the wild lupines were blooming all over the island in profusion and were spectacular.

This lighthouse is claimed to be the most photographed in the world. It is a must see on Campobello Island and can only be reached at low tide. The journey to the lighthouse is an experience in itself!

We stopped to admire this beautiful old lighthouse and the views on our way to Roosevelt Campobello International Park. The views from the hill were so beautiful as you looked across at the FDR bridge and into the town of Lubec, Maine.
