This weekend we drove up to Kennebunkport and Portland, Maine.
We stopped in Portsmouth, New Hampshire to tour the Red Hook Brewery. Brewery tours always teach the same basic steps of how to make beer and the four main ingredients. We love to taste different beers, though! Red Hook wasn't our favorite, but the tour was fun!
Next we headed to Kennebunkport and stopped at the "Wedding Cake House", and "Mainely Quilts".Then we ate my favorite meal at a place called Bennett's. Yum!
After lunch, we walked along the beach and enjoyed the beautiful weather!
On our way out of Kennebunkport, we stopped to view a little piece of Texas: the Summer Home of the first George Bush. It was fun to see the Texas flag flying.
In the late afternoon, we headed to Portland, where we visited what I will call a mead-ery, a place where they make mead. Mead is an alcoholic beverage made from honey. The honey is combined with water, then yeast is added and the mixture ferments. After fermentation, they add fruit or other flavorings to add a little something extra. The whole experience was very interesting!
At the end of the day, we ate some Portland sushi and headed back to Boston!
