Bar Harbor wildlife cruise

 The last day we took a wildlife cruise from Bar Harbor. It was a really foggy day and all the whale cruises were canceled and they weren't sure of the wildlife cruise until the last minute. They did their best but it was foggy.

This doesn't really give you an idea how foggy it was since I adjusted the levels on the photo, I wish we could see this well.

This is a more accurate idea what the day was like. From the boat the conversation was something like "see that little black spot, I think that's a seal".
It was a little easier to see through the camera since I was using a 500mm lens.

 

It wasn't until I updated all the photos to my laptop and brightened them up did we realize there were a bunch of sea lions lying on the shore of the island.
On the trip back to the harbor the fog lifted enough we spotted a Bald Eagle on one of the islands.

 

One more point about Bar Harbor, the parking there is even worse than the national park.
