Today, we travel to Boothbay Harbor, from its roots as a 17th-century fishing village to now, one of Maine’s classic coastal destinations.

We’ll begin at the Boothbay Railway Village Museum, spend the morning discovering 35-acres of Maine history brought to life! Step back in time for a peek at Maine and the way life used to be.

When you visit the museum, you’ll learn about how technologies like steam engines and the automobile changed life along the coast of Maine between 1850 and 1950.

Choose between the Pot Roast with carrots & potatoes, Italian Chicken Breast with rice & summer vegetables, Garlic Basil Pesto Pasta, Hot Pulled Pork Sandwich on white roll or Lobster Roll on toast bun with lettuce & tomato.

We’ll also pass by 3 lighthouses (Ram, Burnt, and Pemaquid Point), see many islands, coastline, Fisherman’s Island, Ocean Point, Spruce Point, Tumbler Island, White Islands, and much more!

Finally, we arrive in York Beach at Short Sands Beach, a small beach with calm waters. Take time to visit The Goldenrod, part restaurant, part ice cream parlor, part candy store, complete with huge taffy-stretching machine in the front window that the kids will love watching. They are famous for their saltwater taffy. Definitely pick up a box to take home for a souvenir. After the day ends, we will head back home. Trip goes rain or shine!

Nunsense is a hilarious spoof about the misadventures of five nuns trying to manage a fundraiser. Sadly, the rest of the sisterhood died from botulism after eating vichyssoise prepared by Sister Julia Child of God. Thus, the remaining nuns – ballet-loving Sister Leo, street-wise Sister Robert Anne, befuddled Sister Mary Amnesia, the Mother Superior Sister Regina, and mistress of the novices Sister Mary Hubert – stage a talent show in order to raise the money to bury their dearly departed. With catchy songs and irreverent comedy, Nunsense is sure to keep audiences rolling with laughter.

Their dinner theatre is unique...enjoy a great buffet--a wonderful play and a fun-filled cabaret. Their extensive, hearty buffet does not skimp on quality or selection. Everything is prepared on the premises. They offer a large variety of hot and cold foods, main entrees, side dishes, beverages and homemade desserts. A full liquor service is available. You will not be disappointed!

Their intimate theatre is just a short stroll from the dining room. There you will have reserved seating to enjoy some of the finest entertainment available. Professional actors will delight you with a wonderful play worthy of Broadway.

Then it is back to your original table...where the dining room has been transformed into a delightful Cabaret where their Company Members continue to entertain you with songs and laughter.

Date(s): 08/24/2024 Time:
Saturday, August 24, 2024

Enjoy the beach or go shopping for the day! Our stops are Hampton Beach, the Kittery Outlets, and York Beach. You get off where you want…that’s right you pick what location you want and spend the day there at that location!!

Hampton Beach, located in New Hampshire is easily the busiest beach in the state and where all the action is. The Atlantic Ocean is the main attraction with its clean water, miles of sandy beach and spruced up bathhouses. But there is so much more to do with a stroll along Ocean Avenue, where arcades, T-shirt stands, and souvenir shops elbow for space with fast-food joints, fried-dough vendors, and candy shops. So much to do, where to begin.

Our next stop be dropped off at the Kittery Outlets, which has over 120 popular brand name outlet stores and of course the famous Kittery Trading Post. Think of it as New England’s Fashion District, featuring the latest and greatest in women’s and men’s apparel, children’s wear, active wear, lingerie, sporting goods, shoes, fashion accessories, home furnishings, housewares, and specialty items.

Finally, we arrive in York Beach at Short Sands Beach, a small beach with calm waters. Take time to visit The Goldenrod, part restaurant, part ice cream parlor, part candy store, complete with huge taffy-stretching machine in the front window that the kids will love watching. They are famous for their saltwater taffy. Definitely pick up a box to take home for a souvenir.

After the day ends, we will head back home. Trip goes rain or shine!

Drop-off & Pick-up Times:
Hampton Beach (10:00 AM – 6:00 PM)
Kittery Outlets (10:30 AM – 5:30 PM)
York Beach (11:00 AM – 5:00 PM)
