On the High Seas!

The waves were choppy, and dark clouds loomed above, but three brave souls and their captain set out upon the Bay of Fundy seeking adventure!.......

Actually we booked a 2 hour kayaking tour with Red Rock Adventures in St. Martins. The weather was, in fact, "iffy" but we managed to dodge the showers and enjoyed seeing the magnificent coastline and exploring caves that are not easily accessible by land.

Beyond the point the waves became a bit choppy so we headed for quieter waters. It's amazing how the conditions and scenery are constantly changing in the Bay of Fundy.

Midway through our adventure we stopped at an isolated beach surrounded by cliffs to enjoy a snack of smoked salmon, avocado, cucumber and cheese and crackers, prepared and served by our delightful "captain", Eric. ...... How civilized!

During our "high tea" on the beach we marveled at our undeveloped surroundings and agreed that we are very fortunate to have such easy access to these places. There was no battling of traffic to get there, ample parking and not another kayaker in sight. We discussed how tourism could be better developed and what effect the Fundy Trail project might have on the area. The consensus was that the influx of money would be great, but we might prefer to be greedy and keep these unpopulated beauties to ourselves!

After making it back to land, safe and sound, ....... ahoy! We spy a gift shop! Always time for a little shopping ... we're women after all!
