We woke on our 7th wedding anniversary to a chilly morning with mist on Squam Lake.
When we got to Weirs Beach, there was just as much mist on Lake Winnipesaukee and not the best day for a boat trip but our wedding reception was held on a boat on the Thames and we have celebrated on the water ever since … no day too grey!
We went aboard the MS Mount Washington and took a few atmospheric photos then retreated indoors for hot breakfast rolls and coffee.
The lake covers 72 sq miles and contains some 365 islands, albeit a few only the size of a rock, but we really didn’t see it at its best. Some people disembarked at Wolfboro which claims to be the oldest summer resort in America, but we stayed onboard and returned to Weirs Beach.
The day didn’t look likely to improve, so we stopped at Squam Lake Marketplace for essential provisions of prosecco, homemade soup to reheat later, feta pies and broccoli salad and retreated to our cosy cottage for the rest of the day!
