July 20 Unloading from the ferry in Saint John, we tour around a little. With directions from an information specialist on the ferry, we find a Suzuki MC dealer, we steers us to a locksmith who cuts 2 sets of keys for Barry's bike. Moving down the road, we pass through Fundy National Park, a rolling set of hills covered with a mixed forest carpet leading the the bay. We stop for lunch at Alma, proclaimed as having the 'highest tides in the world'.
The broad seabed shows how far the water goes down at low tide. We read that the water flowing into the Bay of Fundy exceeds all the water in all the rivers in the world, twice a day.
The Hopewell Rocks show the effect of the 40 to 50 feet high water washing back and forth. Some strange shapes result.
Cruising up to Moncton, then over to Sackville, we are set for the night.
Love the photos of the tidal shores. Glad to hear you're having a great time.
