Babymoon 2013: Last Day

Friday was our last low key day before we traveled home. We went from Maine to Vermont in about 6 hours or so. We didn't do much but eat really good food! Breakfast was at a place that Ian went to on his childhood New England trip. Governor's Restaurant (sadly the train wasn't running...)

 

 

It was a long day of twisty roads through a couple state parks. We passed what I think was the back side of Mount Washington which was covered in snow. We stopped in Gorham, New Hampshire at Mountain Fire Pizza. It was another great random food find... fresh wood fired pizza and spicy butternut squash and maple soup. We got to Vermont just as the sun was setting. We headed down to the shore of Lake Champlain to the Church Street Marketplace. It's a closed street with a few blocks of stores and restaurants. We found a place called Sweetwaters and we got a table in the enclosed patio area.

 

 

 

To celebrate the end of our Babymoon, we ordered dessert. Ian had a Maple Creme Brûlée and I had the most delicious dessert... Salted Caramel Vanilla Cake. :> Thankfully, we walked it off by exploring the marketplace.

 

 

The Babymoon - still an odd word - was a success. It was exactly what I wanted from a pre-baby trip. We traveled EXACTLY 3600 kilometers or 2237 miles. Now we get back to the new normal. Tomorrow we find out if baby is still healthy and possibly the gender. If we find out the gender, then it's game on! We will order the nursery furniture and start picking out names and colors. :) Good times~
