It
was a beautiful day for crossing the border.
We entered a new time zone. |
And a new country |
The
Route
We
traveled 111 miles today. We headed north on ME-9 to its end at the St. Stephen
border crossing, then east on NB-1 to St. John. We took a side trip via NB-127 to
St. Andrews on the way to St. John.
We’re
camped at Hardings Landing. We got there by going north on NB-7 from St. John to
NB-177, and then north on NB-177 to Hardings Landing.
Stuff
of Note
We
experienced déjà vu when we drove through Calais last night. We confirmed it
when we stopped at Karen’s Main Street
Diner for breakfast this morning. We stopped here in 2012 during our
northeast trip.
Karen's was familiar. |
Breakfast was OK. |
This
was the day for New Brunswick’s annual holiday (the 1st Monday of
August). Most businesses were closed. We saw many celebrations as we passed through
St. Stephen and St Andrews. St. Andrews is a very pretty, high-end resort area.
Along Water Street |
The Algonquin Resort |
Hardings Landing Campground is nice and fun to get to. We had to take a free ferry ride to get to the campground. We’ll stay here a few days.
Crossing the St. John River |

We’re
going to observe the effects of the Bay
of Fundy tides.
