Saturday July 16. Long day of driving. Google maps said 4 hr 20 min. but we managed to take all day. Finally arrived at this park around 5:00 PM but that’s Atlantic time, one hour ahead of eastern time. Ate lunch at a TripAdvisor recommended spot, Debi’s Diner in Patton, Me. Known for regional food such as red hot dogs, Maine beans, clams and fish chowder. The latter two were good, but red hot dogs are hot dogs apparently with red food coloring. Oh, and whoopee pie, a Maine regional dessert.
We drove by Mount Katahdin and across New Brunswick which is essentially Maine with even fewer people. Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world. Rapids literally run up stream during high tide. There is a naturally occurring whirlpool and some of the rivers have a tidal bore. That’s a standing wave that runs up river. Hope to see at least some of that but walking on the ocean floor at low tide should be a “can’t miss” experience.
