    After I left Mariner’s Reach I went to Deer Island to go to Campobello Island. Just before getting on the boat I became part of a procession of old cars, with several T-Fords, an Overland and a Bugatti.

    At Deer Island I realized it would be rather late to get 3 other ferry rides, so after some touring I decided to go back to the mainland to check Saint Andrews one more time, great town, perfect dark local beer. Bought me some St. Andrews T-shirts and afterwards went back to the Rosemount Inn for dinner.

    I passed St. George:

    and one of the views in St. Andrews:

    Last night I had some issues with very loud (American?) people on the corridor, so I was a bit annoyed but today with the dinner everything was forgotten. Great food, great service, great waitresses (and for Dolf no I do not have pictures :-), and yes they were better looking, but also serving much better then the one in Cape Breton). Actually the 3 of them could easily fit in the one from the day before at Hopewell Rocks.

    The food was sooooooo good, I seldom had such good fish, the Haddock from Bay of Fundy. After the dinner I met the cooks and they said, yes that is the signature dish, well glad I took that one.

    Actually the desert was also very good, several sorts of cheese, including a Blue Cheese, from the north of New Brunswick and to top it off with an Ice wine from Jost Winery from Nova Scotia. Needless to say these 2 days are not cheap, but this is what Holiday is all about, relaxing, scenery, nature, nice people and perfect food.

    Tomorrow back to Nova Scotia, but I will miss New Brunswick already, great ride!
