2016 3rd Stop: Wells, Maine

When Charlie planned Wells as a three-night stay, I thought "Wells?"  What a good choice!  We started by visiting the Wells harbor; pretty but a rainy mid-afternoon. 














We chose Fisherman's Catch for dinner on the recommendation of our front desk clerk.  What an excellent recommendation!  Waited 30 minutes for a table although it was early, but every minute of the wait was worth it.  I had a lobster roll, something I had not had since the last time we were in Maine; it was so good!  Connecticut-style (melted butter) not Maine-style (mayonnaise and celery - yuk).







A sign of the times.  Check out the chocolate dipped bacon!
The next morning we decided to do some more exploring of the area.  But first, just a double blocks from the campground we discovered the world's best doughnut shop ever.  It was soooo good, we were forced to indulge the next day as well!  A must stop if you are in Wells.













We then ventured to Wells Beach.  Who knew that all of Maine's shoreline are not rocky and often inaccessible?  Wells Beach is long and wide and sandy!  We spent an hour sitting on the beach and just enjoying the waves (until our parking time expired).  It was really nice.





After more exploring, we decided to stop at a restaurant we spotted along the way.  What a find!  Small and casual and friendly.  And offering a delicious lobster roll!  Noticing a trend?
