Thanks Everyone, for your suggestions. We've used up two-thirds of our time, visiting Halifax, southern Nova Scotia, Cape Breton Island, and P.E.I We're spending our second night in Moncton, (but haven't seen Moncton itself yet). Today we visited the most awesome Hopewell Rocks. What a fantastic place that is! It's a highlight of this vacation, along with wading in the ocean at Ingonish Beach, in Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The 13 km long Confederation Bridge we crossed yesterday afternoon from P.E.I. to New Brunswick was also very impressive. For dinner last evening, the desk clerk at our Moncton motel recommended Hynes Restaurant, down the road. It exceeded all expectations. They make real food there, none of that fancy unrecognizable stuff so many restaurants offer now. We liked it so much that we went back for dinner again tonight. Tonight we each had a big bowl of fricot and shared a strawberry shortcake for dessert. Excellent! Tomorrow we'll go to St. John, NB, on a quest. Mr. diffuse hopes that we can find the pier where he and his fellow student refugees disembarked from the Empress of Britain, January 6th 1957. rags
