We had two weeks vacation with ZaiZai (dog) and MauMau (cat) in the Northeast of the States in the end of September and the beginning of October, 2007. It was our last vacation with ZaiZai. She (German Shepherd Mix) had strong will to go out although she had been in the wheelchair for more than one year. I planned to catch the best fall colors in New England and Acadia National Park. We had a few days in the Mountains of New Hempshire. Then, We rented a vacation house for one week in the town of Southwest Habor in the island where Acadia National Park locates.

However, I did not realize that the fall season is slightly delayed on the coastline as comparing to inland mountain regions until I arrived in Acadia Nation Park.
