Wow what a change in weather, when we got up this morning it was 45 degrees and Robert put the heat on without being asked to - guess it is the altitude.
The town of Houlton, Maine where we stayed last night was established in 1807 and 2 miles from where we stayed was a tribe of Indians called Maliseet.
Headed out toward Canada along the way we traveled past the town of Nackawick which is the home of the world's largest axe yes axe. Who knew?
Driving along Route 7 we actually saw a young moose grazing along the side of the road; now Robert is a true believer he has now seen moose in 2 countries. The photographer was too slow to get a picture.
Arrived in the Bay of Fundy in St. Martins - New Brunswick - Canada.
We parked the camper and look right out of the windshield at the bay. Totally awesome, arrived at low tide so you can walk on the ocean floor or bay floor if you are that picky. Can watch the lobster boats going by too.
We took a drive over to the sea caves which you can walk to at low tide but can only get to them by boat at high tide.
It is just beautiful here, but the towns are very tiny and there are some magnificent old Victorian homes.

So here we were sitting outside having late afternoon coffee and tea and noticed that the lobster boats were all lined up waiting to dock - waiting for the tide to come in far enough for them - so we decided to drive to the dock which we can see from the campground and low and behold they will sell you lobsters right off their boats - bought one 7 pounder and a 5 pounder for $5.00 per pound - can't imagine what something like that in PA would cost - Robert is outside cooking them right now - yes we even brought a huge pot and burner for outside - we are no dummies when it comes to fresh lobster. We will try to get more tomorrow and freeze them. The tide in now coming in and it is just amazing they only have 1 low and 1 high tide in a day.
Tomorrow we will be taking the Fundy Coastal Drive - arrived her too late to do that it should take all day - we did one other small drive today and saw a lighthouse out on the point.
Some of these people have a million dollar view from their homes.
We got some really good pictures today and I am sure we will get plenty more tomorrow. This picture was taken standing next to the motorhome in the campground.
Keep you all posted!
