One week to go!  It looks like my family and my parents will be caravaning up starting on Tuesday evening, doing the Wal-Mart thing that night, probably arriving in Ogunquit Wednesday evening.  My parents are still ok with poping up at Wal-Mart, I think my mother wants to be able to say they've done it.  Cool  This will be the 4th time we've been in our 'pod @ Wal-Mart (plus another night just in our van).
 
Should be interesting, a good friend of ours and her son may be joining us.  Without any extra room in the 'pod I think they are going to sleep in the van like we did.  That will make packing a little more difficult since chairs and EZ-ups can't just stay in the back of the van overnight.  I'm going to try to put the awnings under the dinette and some chairs under the bed - I don't want to have to do much rearranging once we get off the highway (other than ripping all the seats out of the van).  The obvious solution would be to put them in my parent's popup, but my brother and one of my uncles will also be in there so I don't want to impose.  At least once we get to Ogunquit they will be staying in a tent so we can leave all the seats in the van for day trips.

Another option while there, is the Foster's Clam Bake.  My family will be going on Friday night.

Just wanted to point out that if anyone still wants to join us during August in Maine, that there is the Maine Lobster Festival (formerly known as the Maine Seafood Festival) the weekend before (Aug 3-7) in Rockland.  This festival is a kid-friendly carnival-plus-lobster event not be be confused with the $$ grownup foodie event, Harvest on the Harbour, in Portland in October.
 
We haven't decided how much we like town carnivals (even though this one has lobster rolls) so are still planning the rest of our Maine trip but are confirmed for the roundup.  Hope this info helps those still planning.

Here are the links to the above festivals:

Just saw this thread.  I was about to bring this up with the wife, since she has lots of family in the Fall River area (not to far from this campground) when I realized it's way to close to our other trip in August.  Maybe if you did another one in the fall....:)
