Our Fundy Visit

South Burlington, Vermont

Our visit to the Bay of Fundy was brief but vivid. Here are a few pictures.

When tides approach 10 meters, the length of floating docks become big.  Above is Cobscook Bay at low tide.

Not all attractions were of the sea.  This is Lepreau Falls

We found this delightful picnic table at Lepreau Falls to stop for lunch.

The working Dennys Harbor.  Charming

Click on this picture, then zoom in on the tree top.  It has a lovely soft blanket of moss.

The signs at Leperau Falls also told a fun story. This place was the jumping off point for rum runners during prohibition. They loaded up their boats with booze, then they had to go only 5 miles out to meet American boats to transfer the cargo to in return they earned fat profits. How fun is that? It makes one wonder how much fun the citizenry might have if we prohibited tobacco, sex, and non-healthy food. Heck, we could have so much fun dodging those laws that we our might even forget out political differences. Right? Nah.
