Hopewell Rocks, August 24, 2010


This is a picture of Hopewell Rocks at high tide (found this picture on internet)




Look at the size of these pumpkins - those are
5 gallon sized buckets beside them. On way back
from Hopewell Rocks, we just had to stop and
get a picture of these in a garden by the highway.


Facts on the Hopewell Rocks - the Bay of Fundy
has the highest tides of anywhere in the world - as
much as 53.5 feet depending on the alignment of
the sun and moon to the earth.

The path we walked down to get to the rocks
about 1/4 mile, then down about 5 or 6 sets of
steps. Of course down was the easy part!
