[quote=Anonymous]We normally take a 2-week vacation before school starts with our kids (ages 13-20). My DH found a great AirBnB within Acadia National Park for those 2 weeks.

The school then sent out their calendar and school starts a week earlier than expected.

The AirBnb isn't available until the Friday of that earlier week (at the earliest).

If we fly to Portland, ME on Monday, is there enough for us to do around there until we can get to the AirBnB on Friday? We like hiking (that's why we're going to Acadia) and science museums. Our kids do not enjoy art museums and none of us enjoy shopping. We have religious restrictions around food so eating out is a non-issue.

If there isn't enough to do, we're trying to figure out where else to go. One kid talked about Glacier National Park; if we do that, we might be there for 1 week and go to Banff National Park (in Canada) for the second week. Other ideas were Europe or Hawaii, but since we're looking at a 10-day trip (Aug 10-20), that might not be enough time for the latter, especially with jet lag.
