Farewell trip to White mountain NH
Before moving south to Virginia in June 2009, we took a farewell trip to New Hampshire, a northern state of New England. It is famous for its white mountain state park and the wired-looking moose. What a memorable trip!
Our first destination was Lost River, a glacier-shaped cave park. After being squeezed like lemons while pass some narrow tunnels in Lost River, we stayed in Gorham for the night, taking a moose tour to see those gentle giants roaming in the forest. Later on our way back to the hotel, we were surprised by a black bear trespassing on the parking lots outside our room!
The next day we climbed onto the top of Mt. Washington, the highest mountain of New England. We visited a small house chained on the ground where the fastest wind speed was recorded. The house is now a lovely gift shop selling souvenirs to the brave souls that dare to reach the summit of New England. We also visited several beautiful falls and then enjoyed the golden sunset on the way home.
I had posted several articles about this trip; however, there are still some photos to be shared. If you are interested, you can visit the "White mountain ● NH" set on my Flickr site.
