Maine is where I want to be

So ever since I can remember, I have always wanted to go to Maine. I have always wanted to see its beautiful mountains and bright blue waters. This summer, my wish was granted. I went to attend a summer program at the University of Maine for six weeks. Most of those weeks were spent at the University working and studying, but we did get a week off to relax and sight see. One of the places I visited was Acadia. Acadia was a beautiful park, with mountains and lakes. It was a warm day, so my friends and I decided to go to the lake for a swim. We all had a blast! We took turns burying each other in the sand, then washed the sand off by taking a swim. Playing Frisbee in the lake was fun too, we made each other chase the Frisbee by throwing it way out of their reach. Afterwards, we took our car and climbed up the mountain. the view form the top was breathtaking. The little lakes and oceans looked so blue in contrast with the green evergreens. I would love to go back and do some more sightseeing and have some more fun with friends.
