Fundy Trip

Although numbers were a lot lower than I thought would be coming, the small group that did show up had a blast on the Fundy Trip.

Fresh Air Adventures were excellent guides once again, and provided a great paddle and snacks. They gave a little talk about the tides, the Bay of Fundy and we all got a lot of sun. We saw an eagle nesting and heard an interesting story of Mr. Hunt and his dulse gathering adventure! I want to thank Alan and his crew for a great morning!

After the kayaking it was time for some hiking. The trail we initially wanted to hike was Moosehorn & Lafferty Falls, but when we got there it was closed. So we decided to hike Third Vault Falls (highest waterfall at the park). The first 3/4 of trail was quite easy but the last bit proved to be a challenge.

So what did we learn? We learned...

...Jordan is not good at decending a steep hiking trail;

...the largest Great White shark ever caught was caught in the Bay of Fundy;

...saving two bags of dulse is not worth the embarassment later (just ask Mr. Hunt);

...the girls are faster paddlers than the guys; and

...ferns do not taste as good as fiddleheads (I still can't believe they ate them);
