Today we stopped at St. Johns, New Brunswick at the City Market. The ceiling is an inverted ship's hull built in 1860's. Had lobster rolls for lunch. It was foggy all day, so not a real scenic drive. We socailized around the campfire tonight with our camping neighbors. They are from Ottawa and fun people. Also, met an older couple celebrating their 48th anniversary on the road - they are from Harrisonburg, VA but didn't know the LuAnne & Mark (small world sometimes). We are camped near Hopewell Rocks. When the tide is out, you walk around flower pot shaped islands that are underwater when the tide is in. So we will check that out at 9:00 when the tide is out. At the campground office, they had fresh scallops for sale, so that was our supper. They were excellent (very sweet). I've never been a huge fan of scallops, but these were good. After the Rocks, we head for Shediac - called the Lobster Capital of the World. Sorry, we didn't take any pictures today - all we saw was fog.
Comments from Eldon: I learned I speak good Canadian - at least that's what one of the shopkeepers told me when he found out I was from the States. Then our camping neighbor told me that too when I mentioned it. I don't know what they're talking about, eh????? They were interesting people, one man was born in Scotland and the other England; they are rugby buddies and have played all over the world. Missy, you would have liked their stories.) Oh, by the way, miss your Princess)
Comments from Larry: Finally, a campsite I can explore. A lake and lots of birds; this is camping. (Roxy, you should see the size of the frogs here, you would love it).
