DAY 1-3
Easy all-freeway travel to Sturbridge, Massachusetts with a super surprise stop along the way. (CB morning 2,3)
DAY 6
Another wonder today will be found in Moncton, NB. Imagine
sitting at the bottom of a steep hill with the engine in neutral and
being pulled bu a large - invisible magnet up to the top of the hill?
Crazy but true! It's called Magnetic Hill. Travel
along the Bay of Fundy and view the Hopewell Rocks. Ocean
tides have carved the Flower Pot Rocks, pillars of sandstone and
conglomerate rock with alsam fir and dwarf spruce growing on top.
When the tide is out visitors can walk on the beach below the
rocks. At high tide, the rocks resemble islands. The rest
of this adventureous day is an experience you won't find anywhere else
on our tours (and I've never seen it on anyone elses either!).
SHHH! It's a secret but you'll be amazed and "satisfied"
when it's over! The Confederation Bridge will bring us to another
Atlantic Providence, Prince Edward Island. (CB, SHHH)
