Bay of Fundy

After a good nights sleep we headed back towards the reversing falls to see what was happening. The tide was going out so we got to see the river flowing towards the ocean.

We were really impressed with St. John. A wonderful city to visit.
We headed up the highway and soon we were at the Fundy National Park. Our main reason to come here was to hike and did we ever accomplish that goal. Although we did a couple small hikes our main one was called Murrays Head.  It was a 4.5 km; half of it moderate and half of it difficult. Oh man they weren't kidding about the difficult part! We were so happy to FINALLY finish it. We were covered in sweat and drinking huge amounts of fluids.

There were some awesome views of the Bay of Fundy.
Our last hike in the Park was to a waterfall called Dickson's Waterfall. It was mostly on wooden steps to get around. We found the hike wonderful to do as the scenery in the little valley was really beautiful (lots of moss covered ground). The little brook was wonderful to listen to and it made its way down the valley to the sea (eventually)

After leaving the park we took scenic highway 915 up the coast. We stopped at Cape Enrage for a quick look.
From there it was a short drive to Hopewell Rocks. The tide was going out and while we were there it went out enough for us to walk out to the rocks. The photo below shows what it was like when we left. When we got there 30 minutes before only about one third of the area in the photo was exposed.

We took many pictures there but most of them are on the dark side.
Tonight we are in Moncton recovering from over 16 kms of hiking.
