The drive through New Brunswick to St. John was very pretty. We took the "River Route" which wove in and out, through the countryside, along the St. John River; a perfect motorcycle route. We did see several bikers going the opposite way. I had to stop letting my lower lip down, as I was afraid that it would stay that way.


We really enjoyed touring around St. John, Canada's oldest city. Brent took me on a Heritage Walking tour, which showcased some of the older, beautiful homes in the area, as well as buildings, town squares, statues. He did a great job, and we spent about 2 hours walking through the city. We also did two, 2 hour hikes along the Bay of Fundy, known for it's huge tidal changes. The vistas were great, and the beaches looked tempting. The photo of the boat in the rapids is taken at a narrowing of St. John river, where the tide actually changes the flow direction of the river twice a day. Quite the site.


We are currently staying in Moncton, heading to PEI tomorrow.
