Day 2 - Good Bye ferry, Hello Camping...

I'm camping at Megunticook Campground near Rockport, ME... I missed the ferry going to Nova Scotia by 5 minutes... Since it's an international ferry, there would be too much time to process me in time for departure... Well, I waved the catamaran good bye...


Well, the ferry was supposed to be a convenience of not riding around by land but use shortcut and end up in Nova Scotia a night before, an option, which I really considered but couldn't achieve due to different circumstances...

It's dark, I'm sitting by the tent site table, smelling mixed firewood smoke and marijuana coming from neighboring campers.. Hate both smells...

I rode near 500 miles today, taking helmet camera video, which, I'm not ready to download now... Exhausted... 

Well, my camping gear, such as tent and sleeping cot, never been tested... 

The tent is a motorcycle tent for Solo Riders (Solo version, original was/is bigger), and accommodate the rider and its horse... We'll see how we sleep together...




Well, good thing about it, is, that I can almost stand straight up inside vestibule and sleeping area... 

Another good thing, in case it rains, I can do everything inside tent and pack the tent last - something I'm lucky in - packing in the rain in the morning...

I like camping luxury, you know, with showers, electricity, and tap water by the tent... Even though I can charge all the electronics in the bike, everything, I still bring extension cord and lamp...




By the way, here is the cot, ultra lite. 


Well, it's up side down...

I'm onto having sone dinner and then going to sleep - I really need to wake up, AND get up early...


Good night!
