Hopewell Rocks

 I was able to check another item off my wish list on Sunday and Monday.  We checked in to the Hopewell Cape Motel (old but nice) at 3 p.m. and then headed to the Hopewll Rocks in time to see the low tide.

Contrary to what your eyes see, this walkway is perfectly level.


This picture is taken from the water line at low tide.


The tides in the Bay of Fundy are the largest in the world.  On the Nova Scotia side they can reach 46 feet.  Here at Hopewell it's only 40 feet!

From where Mardi is dipping her toes.......


.....to the base of the flowerpot rocks is 28 feet.  This is what we saw just before we headed for P.E.I. so the water has another 12 feet to go and those tourists are going to be shephered to safety in a couple of minutes.


What a lovely couple!


We're at Kathy and Lorrie's now.  That will be a story for another day.

Go Jays go!

Stay well.
