Castle in the Clouds

[Chapomis_imp]

Headed north yesterday to the Lake Winnipesaukee area. On the way there we stopped at the Canterbury Shaker Village, pretty interesting, sorry no pictures Today we rode around the south end of the lake, a lot of very nice riding in the area. Especially nice as there really wasn't much traffic, it being a week day and off season. Perfect weather, mid 70s, clear sky's and no humidity !

Stopped in Wolfboro, Americas first resort town (according to Wolfboro) and had a great lunch. Then off to the Castle in the Clouds (worth googling, to tired to give you the history)
