Scenic Drive Southwest of St. John, August 20, 2010


Our site at Hardings Point, St. John, NB


This is a holding weir for lobsters until they
are shipped. There was a lobster processing
business here.


Wharf and lobster traps


Scenic drive southwest of St. John, mostly
fishing villages, not heavily traveled. Guess who
we passed on the road - the Gypsy Mermaid that
we saw on August 16 in Eastport, Maine, in
her ornate blue van. (See picture in earlier post.)

St. Martin, NB, August 19, 2010


If you click on the picture to make it bigger, you'll
see a little fox in this farmer's driveway


The countryside north of St. John

See the dark spot in the notch of these rocks -
that's a big seal. We watched it for a few minutes
thru the binoculars before it slid off into the waves,
taken at the West Quaco light

Caves at St. Martin formed by the tides. You
have to wait until low tide before you can walk
out there
