NC State alumni on a WolfTreks cruise enoyed a private wine-and- cheese reception as the ship sailed off the coast of Maine.
See the NC State flag? We are planning to have the it flown from one of the ship’s masts before the cruise ends in Montreal. We’ll try to post a picture of the flag flying.
Rainy weather kept some indoors when the ship docked in Bar Harbor, Maine, but some intrepid travelers took a tour of Acadia National Park and were able to visit a spot called Thunder Hole, where the waves crash so hard against the granite cliffs that it creates a thunderous roar.
Next stop, Canada.

About two dozen WolfTreks travelers sailed out of New York Harbor at sunset on Friday with a spectacular view of the Statue of Liberty on one side and the new Freedom Tower – the replacement for the twin towers destroyed on 9/11 — in Lower Manhattan on the other.
The Regatta’s first stop on the WolfTrek’s New England/Canada Fall Folliage Cruise was Newport, R.I., where the travelers toured the mansions of the Gilded Age that made Newport famous as a haven for the wealthy.
Later it was on to Rockland, Maine, where the travelers enjoyed strolling through the coastal village. Lobster rolls – buttered, toasted hot dog buns filled with lobster meat mixed with mayonnaise – are a local delicacy, and a number of NC State almuni tried one for the first time.
Next stop: Bar Harbor, Maine, and Acadia National Park.
