    Almost 500! Great work! Love quiche when it’s done right. Sounds like it would be better with bacon though! Thanks for the ferry info. I’m a sucker for fresh backed cookies too! Gooyee all day! Love a day out on the water. It’s such a great way to explore. And cranberry islands are one of my favorites there. Great share!

    The islands are lovely. I enjoyed your little walk through the woods. We have lots of eagles and osprey where I live. The nests are similar. Special platforms are built by the utility companies so they won’t nest of the poles/lines. Do you have osprey on the islands?

    • @AdventuresOfATravelingDon

      There are Osprey up here. I see more Eagles than Osprey but occasionally you can catch glimpses of one.

    I've never actually heard of the cranberry Islands before. They look really cute and like island life there would be so peaceful. Interesting to see how the mail boat works and the cute pups on board. I'd love to have a sunset dinner on Little Cranberry too bad the restaurant was closed when you visited. Your videos are always so informative and I really appreciate the detail you share 👌

      There are cars on the Island. Most everybody gets around by bike, walking or golf cart. As to how they got the cars and furniture into the island I am not sure which boat they use for that.

    • @AdventuresOfATravelingDon
      @AdventuresOfATravelingDon  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not that day. The boats all inter connect to the 3 points. So you get off at say great cranberry, explore then get on the boat to little cranberry. Now you have to watch which boat is going where. Because there are boats that just go between the islands and ones that connect to the mainland. They would have all the time schedules at the info desk

      The Beal and Bunker doesn't. There was info for a night boat however. Probably contracted out to one of the local boat owners. I remember being on one in 2018 after a wedding dinner.
