Alma NB

The beauty of fall in New Brunswick is magnificent. The scent of crunchy maple leaves in our park near Hartland reminded us of walks in Algonquin Provincial Park. St. George N.B. on the shore of the Bay of Fundy was our original destination. There the B&B in which we were interested proved to be a disappointment. Between Alma (just north of Fundy National Park) and St. George we viewed about fifteen properties. Between appointments we enjoyed clam chowder in bay side cafes and many orders of fried clams from roadside take outs. Everywhere was set up for the crush of tourists who visit the Fundy National Park area each summer. Our offer on a B&B in Alma was accepted, however in less than twelve hours “ buyer's remorse” set in. That day we packed up our RV and travelled to west of Montreal (approximately 1100 km.) Conditional offers are always wise.
This is a picture overlooking Alma and the Bay of Fundy.


We did take time to tour St. John. This is the oldest established market in Canada.
