5. Ogonquit, on Rt 1, within a few miles of Old Orchard. It is a better use of your time than Portland

It has a Marginal Way walk of about 2 miles. Every bend of the path introduces a magnificent view. I don't know if you have a camera (hee, hee) but you will get good usage of it on the Marginal Way. It was a WPA/CCC project during the Great Depression.

Save Portland for the evening and get a ticket for one of the harbor cruises... bring a jacket as it will be cool/cold. Find a cruise that goes to the lighthouse.
