Monday 7/29 (Day 16)- Leaving Acadia
     Today was another travel day. I took a leisurely exit to Acadia, eating breakfast at the free-will donation cafe/soup kitchen, and climbing around the rocks at low tide one last time. It was probably noon by the time I actually left the island. On the way to Newburyport, I stopped at LL Bean's flagship store as suggested by M and D. Too many damn people. Place was a zoo. I went into the store for 5 minutes to use the bathroom, looked at a couple shirts, then booked it out of there.
     I arrived in Newburyport around 5 and did my pre-race run along the course. It is a really cool town. Very old, lots of brick buildings, and right at the mouth of a river on the ocean. I found a motel roughly 25 miles from the place (camping was sparse here!) and chilled out for the rest of the evening.

Day High: One last morning enjoying the Acadia coast
Day Low: Laundry in Newburyport- all my running clothes had gotten soaked from the night before, and I had to cram them in a bag when I left. Kind of a waste of time, but they didn't smell so good after sitting wet in a bag for 12 hours.
