Gatehouse to what was the Rockefeller summer home--now the entrance to one of the "carriage roads"

Sun, Jul 22

Made a big breakfast this morning. Then we took the bikes over to the carriage road by Jordon Pond. Turned out to be a very strenuous ride—especially going along Jordon Pond. A very long hill. I whined most of the way. Long hills. Beautiful though. We biked around Eagle Lake and then back by Bubbles Pond. Both were beautiful—especially Bubbles Pond. We had lunch there. We spotted another loon on the pond and watched him for a while. The water was very warm and so inviting. No swimming allowed though. Continued the ride. Finally made it back. Tired and sore. Too much work. Got back to the campground and took a shower. Just had a salad and sandwiches for dinner.
