Day 28








Heres a picture that shows one of our biggest tourist attractions, the Bay of Fundy. Nova Scotia is where we have the proud distinction of having the highest tides in the world, changing 6-8 feet per hour. The go from an average of 3 feet(found elsewhere in the world) to 52 feet in just a few short hours. You actually have to check where the tides are before heading to the beaches as somedays there are sand, other days there are not.

I dont think many people swim there. its FREEZING for one and is salt water. But there is tons of kayaking and whale watching.
