New/Different in Kennebunkport?
 
Hey, heading back to one of my favorite places in the world, Kennebunkport next month. Love it, but just wondering if there is anything new or different to do or places to eat I should know about? Thank you in advance.

You might try checking Northern New England thread on chowhound.com or posting your question there. Do you plan on making a day trip to Portland? We had never been to the Eastern Promenade. It was fun on a sunday morning to watch the activity in Casco Bay from a good, free parking spot. I think paddle boarders so close to big boats is crazy, though. Our air b&b hostess snickered over our visit to Holy Donut on Rt 1 (south of Portland) but we almost couldn't get a parking space. Place was mobbed. She said we should go to places like The Honey Paw (Asian Fusion).

In early August there are some private gardens in York County open to the public for Garden Conservancy Open Days. Have you gone to a "cooking class" (it's really a demo with full course meal) at Stonewall Kitchens in Kittery?
