Everyone, and I mean everyone, we talk to about Portsmouth tells us we 'have to go'. So we did…read more The city is a mix of modern and historic with lots of small 'mom & pop' businesses, eclectic restaurants, neighborhood bars, historic cemeteries, parks by the sea, restored theaters and pedestrian shopping areas. Very nice. We took in quite a few historic sights, did a bit of wandering around shops, visited a couple of local restaurants and very much enjoyed ourselves. Parking is in paid municipal lots around the outer edges of the downtown area. The streets are too narrow (historic) to allow parking on street. We did hear a couple of tradesmen working on a restoration project talking about parking. One of them had not paid for parking and his companion said the ticket for not paying was 'only $35' which was about what he'd pay for a day of parking anyhow so he should 'just let it ride'. So yeah, parking. Even our waitress had to pay to park. Ouch. That's a big chunk out of your daily wages. One of the comments we often hear is Portsmouth is a city that feels like a small town. I agree. Everyone we encountered was very community focused. They all seem to know each other and are happy to make suggestions of places to try or hacks to know navigating the city.

Portsmouth is the kind of town you say, "Honey, let's never go back home." On a Sunday afternoon, Market Square was buzzing with shoppers, people masked up observing social distancing with some dining al fresco. Jazz clubs, beautiful specialty stores (I fell in love with a mohair throw blanket imported from Ireland), restaurants at every price point, break from the madding crowd and head down one of the narrow winding alleys that have a distinctly European feel.

For two, there's a ton of FREE PARKING. And it's not the sort of deal where you need to get on a shuttle. You park and walk to the door. For three, it's not Logan. For four, you're in and out if you check luggage. For five, security is tight. They check all baggage, so pack your nice unmentionables. What else do you need to know?

The…read morestaff is extraordinarily friendly, the space given for every car is more than adequate, NO BLOCKING IN, and admission includes the use of their very clean outdoor shower to get that pesky sand off of your feet before getting back in your car after a long beach day, and of course the water for this shower is warm as well. I would love for every visit to this great beach to be accompanied by a spot at this very parking lot, and would consider it nothing less than an epic disappointment if the goal was unattainable during one of my visits here. I cannot recommend this parking destination of luxurious wonder enough, as I am still reeling from my exemplary experience made even better by my comfort of knowing I left my vehicle in nothing less than the most capable hands available. Park here and prepare to be in nothing shy of awe of this incredible temple of motor vehicle shangri-la.

"Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle in your boots and shoes Wiggle,…read morewiggle, wiggle, you got nothing to lose" (Bob Dylan) Ever since I stumbled upon a Yelp listing for something as awesomely named as "The Wiggly Bridge", I knew I just had to make a visit happen one of these days. Pulling off that visit was difficult, because following the address we had put us in the middle of a residential neighborhood with "Permit Parking Only" signs galore. We parked off to the side, held our breath, crossed our fingers, and looked for the Bridge, which was nowhere to be found. Luckily, a gent was walking near us, and he directed us to a long circuitous walk down an elevated path, under the road, and across a marine walkway. As we walked and walked and walked, we finally caught sight of the big green spires that told us we had found the elusive Wiggly Bridge. The Wiggly Bridge is just 75 feet long, and I've seen a few sources claim it's the smallest suspension bridge in the world. And yes, we can confirm that when you walk across it, it most definitely bounces, wiggles, and flexes under your feet. I can also confirm that on a rainy day (like today), the Bridge should really be named "The Wiggly and Slippery Bridge", because it was slippery as hell.

The Wiggly Bridge is a narrow pedestrian suspension bridge that stands in York, Maine. Located just…read moreoff of Maine State Route 103 (Lilac Lane), the 75-foot-long bridge crosses the tidal flow from Barrel Mill Pond to the York River. Built in the 1930s, it is believed to be the smallest suspension bridge in the United States. The bridge provides access to the Steedman Woods Nature Preserve and is a popular feature of the Fisherman's Walk trail. Originally known as the "Barrel Bridge", local lore claims that it earned its current name from a perceptive group of Girl Scouts who noted the bridge's "wiggly" nature. When walked upon, the deck bounces and flexes, banging back and forth in the anchorages. Many native southern Mainers can share their own childhood memories of leaping over the edge into the water and being pushed underneath with the current, one way or the other depending on the tide. This practice, as well as clam digging and any other possibly damaging activity, is now discouraged due to the erosion of mudflats. The Wiggly Bridge stands out as an iconic landmark and a must-visit destination for anyone looking to immerse themselves in York, Maine's unique charm and natural splendor. Steedman Woods is also a great place to visit. A nice stroll on the trails in this lush and tranquil forest offer scenic viewpoints and picturesque spots that showcase the breathtaking beauty of the Maine coast. Parking near the Wiggly Bridge is limited, so you may need to park on the side of Route 103 or in a nearby harbor lot, keeping in mind some spots may require a permit or have time restrictions. It is also possible to walk to the bridge from nearby York Village.

The Maine Visitors Center and grounds is absolutely beautiful and extremely clean.

Everything and anything you want or need to know is here. And if they don't have a brochure, leaflet, etc.....just ask! The staff here is beyond knowledgeable about what is in the state, the surrounding states and the portions of Canada that border with Maine. Not to mention they can make some great recommendations.

This fort was active through many wars and then decommissioned while building a protective wall around the property. Huge slabs of quarried stone, partually carved blocks and lots of stone 'chips' are scattered about. There are a few information signs detailing the history of Fort McClary and some buildings have signs that state the building purpose. Foundations of some buildings is all that remains. They have a few cannons on display. Check out their website for information on events and when the fort is manned. There is a seperate picnic grove up the road about 50 yards across the street. A dirt parking lot holds around a dozen vehicles or so and there is an 'RV turn around' area, but no parking for RV's or busses here. One outhouse is located past the end of the parking lot.
