Kirsten, who is currently visiting us in Wolfville, and I took a quick trip to the Nova Scotia part of the Bay of Fundy that is nearest to Wolfville.
Our first attempt to get to the Bay of Fundy via Bennetts Bay lead us to something of a dead end no more than 100 feet from the water.
After a little more thinking and driving Kirsten and I managed to find a nearby community, something like Paddy's Beach, that provided the public access to the water front.
Maybe even more impressive than just being able to see the majestic Bay of Fundy was that we were able to walk around on a rocky area exposed by low tide and framed by a rather impressive waterfall. And of course the best part of this all was that, aside from a few sea birds, we were alone while exploring.
After the leaving the Bay of Fundy Kirsten and I made our way to the much more interesting New Minas for a series of rather commonplace errands.
A little later in the day all three of us stopped by a small petting zoo to visit a few cute goats and peacocks. We were all quite surprised to see that the peahen seemed to have laid a few eggs (though she didn't seem to be minding the eggs too closely).
Anyway, mundane commercial endeavours aside, it was a very pleasant day.
