New Personal Record

Leaving "Wampsville" at 7am we had planned to make to a service area at the I-95, just about an hour or so beyond New Hampshire. 

We made great progress from 7am to about 10am. Traffic wasn't bad and New York's I-90 is not bad. Sliding along we then entered Massachusetts. 

More traffic there and a couple of drivers who shouldn't even have a drivers license.

From the I-495 we entered the good old I-95 into New Hampshire. 

At the first toll station in Maine, we learned something new. While most "normal" vehicles are charged after the number of axles, motorhomes are not. They are charged as "Campers" and have a flat fee of $10. Together with the trailer we lost $14 there. But the road is excellent so we didn't mind. Btw. the following 2 stations don't follow that same regimen. Go figure!

We stopped at the NH - Liquor outlet to get a Norwegian specialty, then floated right into Maine. 

But when we got to the Liqour Outlet in New Hampshire it was only about 1pm and way too early to call it a day. So we decided to make it to Bangor, ME. We know about a truckstop with a dump station and 3.5hrs later we had reached that place. If you want to use it some time, it's called Dysarts Truck Stop and you'll find it close to the I-95 south of Bangor.

This nasty stuff is a left-over from winter!

So all that brought our driving distance to 515miles which I cannot remember we ever did, especially not with a big rig like this year. Btw.: I finally took a measure tape to find out the total length, which came to 66ft (20.12m)

The I-95 through Maine is in a spotless condition, despite the fact that frost and snow is present here about 5 months every year. So in case those road experts from the south want to learn about quality road construction, I'm sure they could come here and learn about it.
