Ministers Island
11. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We drove across the bottom of the ocean floor at low tide to reach Ministers Island, the estate of Sir William Van Horne. It is only accessible at low tide and a strange feeling to know that the path will be covered by 20 feet of water when the tide comes in. The island houses his 50 room estate and the country's largest wooden barn. The weather turned blustery and chilly while we were there so we ate our picnic lunch in the car! Tonight we had heavy rain.Lue lisää

Matkaaja The Van Horne Cottage is very interesting. 50 rooms filled with his furnishings and own paintings which were well crafted. The barn was built by unemployed ship wrights so the structure is like an inverted sailing vessel.

Fredericton New Brunswick
12. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ 🌫 17 °C
Today we traveled north to Fredericton, the capital of New Brunswick. On one turn on the highway we suddenly faced a railroad underpass of 4 meters (13 ft.)! We came to screeching halt since we are a little taller. Some nice Canadian trucker stopped and told us that it actually was a little higher than posted and that we would fit underneath. Whew!
After arriving we went on a walking tour of the historic city center.Lue lisää

Matkaaja What're those white things in the water behind Dick & the big anchor?
13.6.2019Vastaa
Matkaaja They are the remains of the railroad bridge which was washed away by a flood and ice flow 1935.

Matkaaja Lots of history as Fredericton was a British Garrison town in which every building burned multiple times until they rebuilt in brick and stone!

Fredericton
13. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ 🌫 23 °C
We enjoyed relaxing this morning in our campground , Hartt Island Resort on the St. John River. It is a lovely site and we were surprised to discover that it contains a large palm tree lined pool and water park! Even though the palms are fake, it made us feel like home.
We returned to town to visit Christ Church a beautiful cathedral built in 1845. Afterward we went across the river to eat lunch at Wolastoq Wharf , a seafood restaurant owned by native Americans. Delicious.Lue lisää

Caraquet
14. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 10 °C
Today was a long driving day in rain and fog. We arrived this afternoon in Caraquet, the capital of Acadia in north New Brunswick. We explored the quaint harbor. Everything here is in French so it feels quite foreign, but we always feel at home by the water.Lue lisää

Acadia
15. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
We spent the day at the Village Historique Acadien. It is a huge collection of historic homes and shops from earlier times. Each house and shop had a docent reenacting life as it was in the eighteenth century. They did a great job and gave us many samples of Acadian food to taste. Fun day and beautiful weather.Lue lisää

Prince Edward Island
17. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We drove south and crossed the Confederation Bridge to reach Prince Edward Island today. The drive across the island to our campground was spectacular with verdant rolling hills and lush farmlands. We saw many red sand potato fields that reminded us of Georgia and Alabama red clay. Tonight we visited Avonlea Village which consisted of antique buildings that are now shops and restaurants.Lue lisää

Matkaaja Arriving at Cavendish, PEI we left behind the swarms of mosquitoes which plagued us in Caraquet. Zoey has large fields to run in and is content to just lay in the lush grass

Anne of Green Gables
18. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
We started our day by visiting the house and barn of Anne of Green Gables fame. It is now part of a National Park with lovely walking trails as well. Afterward we drove to the wharf at North Rustico for lunch at the Blue Mussel Cafe-- yummy seafood chowder and fresh halibut. After lunch we drove along the north shore which has also been preserved as a National Park with its beautiful red rock formations. Offshore were thousands of lobster pots and working lobster boats.Lue lisää

North Shore/Ross Family Ceilidh
19. kesäkuuta 2019, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Today we first drove to Brackley Beach where we saw various local artists' works. After a nice lunch in the studio cafe and gardens, we drove along another area of the north shore which is also part of the National Park system. We found wide sandy beaches with surprisingly warm water pools. Tonight we had quite a treat. We went to the Ross Family Ceilidh nearby and were amazed at their talent both in music and traditional step dancing. They put on quite a show!Lue lisää

Matkaaja Some of the locals were brave enough to try the water at the beach. The Ceilidh was a special treat of traditional Scottish/Acadian music which is very much like our Bluegrass music. The roots all stem from Scotland and Ireland. Excellent!
