Chateau Moncton

Heute Morgen gab es ein kaltes Erwachen. Der neue Kälterekord der Innentemperatur liegt nun bei 3 Grad. Wir freuten uns auf eine heisse Dusche. Aber denkste, die Duschen hatten statt Fenster Gitter, welche die Kälte ungehindert reinliessen. Und heisses Wasser gabs auch nicht wirklich, eher lauwarm. Das war doch ein toller Start. :-)<br><br>Wir fuhren Richtung Fundy Nationalpark. Unterwegs konnten wir bereits im ersten Schnee laufen. Brrrr......kalt! Einen Stopp legten wir am Cape ...

... at dusk and greatly enjoyed the rural (if somewhat run down) countryside. <br><br>We shared the B&amp;B with a couple from Ontario - had flown to Moncton NB and were returning home via train the next day from Moncton. Big fans of train travel, they have made many trips by rail across this country over the years.<br><br>Following our walk, we spent a quiet evening reading in our musty, crooked little B&amp;B and despite a few misgivings, are happy to report it was ghost-free!<br><br>&#12288;

... out of another rental car just did not seem all that appealing so we chose to pay the drop-off fee and the bridge toll and keep our little red Dodge an extra day. <br><br>Had another delicious breakfast, packed up and drove across the Confederation Bridge and on to Amherst where we had lunch at the most popular joint in town - Tim Horton&#8217;s. Took a few pics and carried on to Moncton.<br ...

... customer have this globe? A thank you message was sent to the Cx for purchasing a real trax ring tone or random promotions . <br><br>This is relevant when a customer is asking why they have a "globe" icon next to the SMS indicator and they do not know how to remove it.<br><br>

... valley from Edmundston to Woodstock N.B. and while this made traveling easier for us it caused great concern to the Garmins who had not been notified of this development. &#8220;Garmi&#8221;, as we have fondly come to know her, shrieked in a state of perpetual alarm as we appeared to her to be driving in the midst of some farmers&#8217; fields and through the depths of the Saint John River. Eventually she locked up entirely and refused to acknowledge ...

... of the CN tower! We gathered our gear and headed on the tube to Osgoode station, after which we headed west on Queen Street to Ryerson Av, where we checked into the Alexandra Hotel, a basic but cofortable room, a double and single bed. Kell took the double, myself the single. We headed to a local supermarket for supplies after which we returned, had tea, a nice pasta meal, and had a nice chilled out night!! The CN was visible from our window, bloody great!!

... we headed off to play nine holes. We arrived at Golf Bouctouche all warmed up and ready to play. It's a beautiful 18 hole course but as usual we were on a semi-tight schedule and could only squeeze in 9. Tonight's destination is the Archibald B&amp;B in Moncton, NB. We wanted to get to Moncton with enough daylight to be able to scope out the city. Moncton is situated in ...

... a distinctive part of Canada. We stayed for about 2-3 hours, long enough to notice a distinctive change in the water level; the sandbars that were visible when we got there were long gone by the time we left, as the water was actually lapping around the bottom of the flowerpots. Back in Moncton, we saw a bit of street music as part of the seafood festival, and had a delicious lobster dinner.

... are currently cutting down their staff and encouraging self check-in, I suppose it might also have been reasonable to expect that the check-in lines might have been long. They weren't. So, we were at the departure gate within about 20 minutes of arriving at the airport, and had over 2h to wait. But, as my mother said, better to be laughing at how early you are than crying because you missed your flight. Got into ...

... and the surrounding area until Wednesday when we'll be returning home for a few weeks of rest and relaxation before embarking on yet another journey. We've decided to pack up and move across the country in an attempt to expand our horizons (and my bachelors degree) in Calgary, Alberta. Starting a Masters in Biochemistry seems a bit daunting, but after this six week adventure I am ...
