Hiking again along Fundy- on the last full day in Canada

Thursday, September 4, our last full day in Canada (this trip) we went to Cape d'Or (and if you remember your French lesson you know what that means).  It was, as were many of the days here, stunningly beautiful. A light house, cliffs, and a hike along the shore and cliffs. That is the Bay of Fundy.

We are staying in a little post card town, Parrsboro, known for ship building, tidal research, and fossils.  There is a geological research center here.

It was a post card pretty day. We enjoyed it very very much. As we have our time here.

At dinner we were planning our next trip back to Canada. Won't be long either.

Later we went on to Cape Chignecto Provincial Park where we went for a hike through the woods and along the high ridge a top the cliffs along the shore. The wildflowers were putting on a show.

When we came out of the woods, the Nova Scotia park service had put in steps to get down to the beach from the cliffs. The tide fortunately was at low tide.

There were lots of interesting rocks. That is the other thing Parrsboro is known for, rocks and fossils.  There was lots of shale nearby that held fossils. I broke open some but did not find a fossil. Perhaps I was not patient enough?  Nah, no chance of that.

A look back at the steps. There was a little creek and waterfall coming out at the same place too.

 If you look closely you can see Patt in the distance.

and likewise if you look closely there I am.

Tomorrow is traveling — on to Bar Harbor, Maine in the US of A.
