So I am feeling a little lost haha. All of my days have just been mushed all together....can't really remember much its all chaos! Anyways so after we left Riveara du loopdy loop (or whatever its called, some frenchy name) we made our way to Saint Johns New Brunswick. We saw the reversing falls, which didn't really look like anything since we didn't go when the tide was at the right point.. (oops) we didn't really have the time to wait around for it to happen. It really sucked walking down all of the stairs with a stiff back, walking like a gibble and finally getting to the destination only to find out that all that pain and effort was so you could see a normal looking river...woohoo. OH! but don't worry! I got the pleasure of walking ALL the way back up those wonderful stairs (my poor back) It was about a 6 hour drive, and my back has been killing me since the day we left for vacation. I went to the chiropractor before we left but of course its giving me grief. Mom likes to laugh at me trying to get comfortable in the SUV I make alot of weird noises while dealing with the pain...... I resorted to sticking my one leg out the window one day, until she told me bugs will probably splat on the bottom of my foot. I was soon back to being cramped haha. We decided to stay in a beautifully sketchy hotel...(I inserted the word beautiful so that it doesn't seem so bad) We had a pretty relaxing night I was SUPER cranky from my sore back and was thankful for the swimming pool and the jets in the hot tub, even if it was sketchy. Mom got some alone time while me and Justin went swimming, she has to write her final essay so that was a good time. She also did some laundry. So we left this morning with goal of heading towards PEI. We took the Fundy trail which is a goat trail of a road that goes along the bay of fundy. We stopped at the shore for a bit, of course when the tide was out, so we had to walk across all of these loose rocks and slimy sea weed. I'm surprised I escaped without an injury!! In fact, I haven't had an injuring this whole trip so far! I'm almost due for a wipe out of some sort. We stopped for a lobster dinner today in St. Martin:) mmmm it was delicious!! Felt so full but it was worth it. We are currently in Moncton, home of the magnetic hill!! Its this hill that you drive down and stop and put your vehicle in neutral and it goes up the hill backwards all by itself!! pretty awesome!! Unfortunately its one of those eye trick...optical illusion things...Mom was the one who just had to point out the sign and ruin the mystery lol. Either way it was a must see thing :). Finding a hotel room was quite the challenge tonight. We found out that there is some huge car show going on this weekend here, which means hotel room rates have sky rocketed just for this occasion. We finally found a room but now we have to skip a few days meals ( lol guess we shouldn't of eaten that lobster today) Tomorrow we are on our way to Port Hastings, Nova Scotia.
-love, your friendly neighborhood gibbled giant

oh ya and we found out today that the ferry from Yarmouth, Nova Scotia to Portland, Maine doesn't run any more so we have to reroute our way to New York and it messes up our schedule. Grrr
