Mainely for the Namesake

Last week our little family hopped on an airplane. This time it took us to Manchester, where we then drove up to Kennebunkport, Maine. First off, I can see what all the fuss is about. That little town/village/city, but not really a city, was so quaint and wonderful!

Alright, now on to the good stuff. We finally got to take Yale to meet his great grandparents, including the amazing man that he was named after. It was so much fun to have them all meet! We spent lots of time playing, walking around the downtown area, going to the beach, kayaking, walking along Ocean Avenue, relaxing, and eating so much good food! Seriously. I ate just about everything under the sea. Except shrimp. Because shrimp is gross. And don't disagree with me. Because this is my blog post. I also had my first experience with eating real lobster. I mean a whole-lobster-sitting-on-your-plate-break-off-the-pieces-and-crack-them-yourself lobster meal. It was definitely something unlike anything I had ever experienced before. It was so yummy!

Enjoy the visuals.
