The Maine Event

It feels like ages since I’ve posted about travel and that’s mostly because I haven’t really had the chance to travel much in the past few months. This past weekend (Canadian Thanksgiving) I traveled with family down to Ogunquit, Maine and took a day trip to Salem, MA.

Let me begin by saying, if there is ever a time to road trip through the north eastern states it is in October. The colours of the trees were like out of a painting, and the weather was just perfect.

Ogunquit was a cute little town right along the ocean. I could tell it was most likely a summer destination but I found it was also a lovely place to watch the beauty of fall unveil. Filled with little shops, markets and cafes the little town was a peaceful place to take a stroll alone, or go down to the beach to watch the waves roll in.

In Salem we visited the Witch Memorial, as well as the Salem Witch House. Both of which were some of the last historical pieces of the Salem Witch Trials left. Of course at this time of year most of the tourist attractions were centered around fright and Halloween, but I feel I got a small taste of historical Salem in my time there. I’ll hopefully return one day to discover even more.

Overall, the ocean is always a relaxing place to be, and reflect at. I’ve been so lucky these past few months and thankful for all my family and friends this Thanksgiving.

Enjoy the little video I put together and the picture gallery below.  Let me know if you have any questions about beautiful Ogunquit by commenting below!

Until next time!
