St John New Brunswick!!
Well time to twist Ryanne again with a motel for two
nights!! Found a $60 a night joint on the side of the hill literally that
appreciated Labradors (first choice didn’t)!! Aww now for a nice soft bed to
stretch out in. Not!! Two nights later we remembered why we like Rattletrap.
She is not stuffy and has a wonderful bed.
Kevan had found a shop with good reviews to have Rattletraps
radiator serviced (she deserves the best you know). So as she was at the spa we
toured the downtown heritage region looking at the many houses and buildings,
some in many stages of restoration.
Found a couple of museums to check out. One was the city police
department. So as I chatted with two retired police officers outside, while
Ryanne gained her dose of affection, Kevan partook.
The first afternoon we went for a drive around town. No,
that isn’t code for we got lost!! We
found not far away were the famous Reversing Falls. So from a vantage point
across from the pulp mill you can watch the river out flowing then later in the
day the reverse with the Fundy tide pushing against the river with a difference
of 14 ft!! This creates rapids and whirlpools, which can be seen. Unfortunately
the jet boat rides season was over.
So stocked with fresh groceries, tank full of gas, and a
clear day ahead we are off to Fredericton as our next stop on the journey!!
Cheers from refreshed Rattletrap and the Gang!!
