New Brunswick

We were up early this morning, and left St Jean-Port-Joli around 7:30 AM on our way to New Brunswick.
Traffic was non existent until we ran into a hilly stretch in New Brunswick. As you can see from the picture it was "total gridlock"


Not a car on the road.

I am not sure how much y'all know about New Brunswick, but I am full of non essential information.

New Brunswick is the only bilingual province in Canada. Canada, as a country is bilingual, but not the provinces. Quebec is unilingual and the other provinces are undeclared. Manitoba was originally bilingual at its creation, then became officially Anglophone only, but this was later reversed by the courts. Manitoba is not currently bilingual.
Good on New Brunswick

Also New Brunswick has the highest tides in the world in the Bay of Fundy, the largest covered bridge in the world in Hartland, the magnetic hill in Moncton as well as the reversing falls on the St John River.

Y'all may have known those facts, but did you know the worlds largest axe is in Nackawic, New Brunswick. And here it is.


You probably also know the Moosehead Brewery in St John is the oldest brewer in Canada.

Below is a picture of Squaw Cap Look Off at the Bay of Fundy. Beautiful.


We checked into the Best Western in Dieppe, New Brunswick, cocktails and dinner at St Louis Bar and Grill, back to our room, and tomorrow we will arrive in Windsor, Nova Scotia.
