From Mars: Travel inward along the plane of the ecliptic, aiming for a point approximately 90 degrees ahead of the current position of the earth.  Unless fuel is no object, a coasting trajectory is the most efficient.  Pass by the earth’s moon, but avoid a slingshot acceleration.  Reenter  over the Pacific on a northward trajectory using atmospheric braking.  Adjust path so sonic boom avoids NewYork City, but still enters Maine airspace near Kittery.  Coast to a landing in the parking lot of the Oxford Plains Speedway and hitch a ride to South Paris.  (Mars to South Paris is about 3 months)
