Anyone ?????

My MUSTs are:



- the beach, of course, Footbridge is a bit quieter so preferred and definitely swim in the ocean - it is cold at first but if you duck your head completely in your body does get used to it and it is so worth it



- walk the Marginal Way



- Ogunquit Museum of American Art



- a boat tour (from Perkins Cove)



- a lunch at MC Perkins Cove



- a breakfast at the Egg%26amp;I



- antique-ing starting at Jorgensen and north on Rt 1 almost to Kennebunk



- Hardings Bookstore in Wells



- The Museum of Lighthouse History in Wells (and the Lighthouse stuff store next to it)



- The Scoop Deck ice cream in Wells



- dinner at the Grey Gull in Wells



- the beach beach beach -- stay for a while and relax!!!



- a walk at Beach Plum Farm





(I think those are my highlights)




I agree wholeheartedly w/all of the previous posters suggestions! Absolute must-do%26#39;s on that list for me would be walking the Marginal Way, the Ogunquit Museum of Art and the boat tour from Perkins Cove. A couple of things I might add would be eating lobster, and a drive south on Shore Road from Ogunquit to the Nubble Light House in Kittery. It%26#39;s a beautiful drive, and you can get a nice ice cream at the light house!

Thanks



It all sounds wonderful




Greetings from an ex-pat! All the things the other 2 posters suggested, plus, try to get to Kennebunkport...it%26#39;s only about a 15 minute drive north of Ogunquit (on the right side of the road!) There is a Trolley tour that leaves from Kennebunkport and takes you round all the sights in the Port and Kennebunk (beach, Bush%26#39;s estate etc). Well worth it. If your looking for a casual lunch or dinner, try the Clam Shack on the bridge into Kennebunkport. All done take out style and the seafood is fresh and delish!





Enjoy!
