Rest Day 2: Edmundston

Our day of rest at Parc de la Republique in New Brunswick was perfect.

The park is a jewel with a beautiful pool, a botanical garden and a butterfly conservatory.

The gardens have characters made of plants growing on a 3D metal frame and a wonderful array of flowers - actually the best ones Charles and I have ever visited. Do not miss this park on your journey east.

If you want a soft ice cream, just outside the park toward Edmundston is Bellavance Kwik Way, and for $2 you get the choice of 6 flavours - yum.

The girls scoped out a new pair of stylish shorts for me at Joe Fresh, and now I feel very chique at the campsite.

We had a bold little red squirrel which started toward Elizabeth as she was reading. It darted across her foot and she jerked her foot and the squirrel flew across the campsite, landed on its feet and scurried away. Now THAT'S what you call a flying squirrel!

Marius's trailer is holding up beautifully.

Our rib steak supper was delish, and Sarah's sweet potato mash was to die for.
