The Big U-Turn

Well, I'm sorry that the pics are not in order, but I'm not sure how to move them around on the blog and they took long enough to upload the first time that I am not willing to start all over. Please accept my apologies...or not it's up to you. :)

Today was just a driving day, so I will talk a little about yesterday. I already told you most of it, but here are a few pics of the big U-turn home. We were at Hirtle Beach, Nova Scotia. Dave brought the RV down the road and around the parking lot (the U-turn) while I videoed the grand event on his phone and took a few snaps. The children are waving goodbye to the Atlantic Ocean and the east. West coast here we come!!!

It is nice and a little sad to be heading back. We have really enjoyed this marvelous adventure. The opportunity to see so many things and so many friends and family has truly been a blessing, but we are also glad to be heading home. We miss our house and our friends and family back west. So here we come!!!

We had a celebration dinner at the Grand Banker where Dave enjoyed another lobster. He also figured out our halfway mileage and gas bill. Here are the results....are you sitting down.....We have driven 9,351 km!....We have paid $2,584 for gas! Dave says OUCH! Oh well, another $2,500 more to go!

Today we are at Hopewell Cape just up the road from the Hopewell Rocks (That's in New Brunswick, for those who may not know). Tomorrow we hope to walk on the ocean floor while the tide is out and watch as the world's highest tide (50ft.) comes in. So hopefully we will have some pics of that for you in the next couple of days. We will be here until Tues. or Wed. and then we are off to Quebec again.

Oh, has anyone heard if Susanne has had her baby? Just wondering how it's going over at the Paiva's household. We're not sure if we should pop by and see them on our way through Ottawa again. We would like to, but don't want to disturb if there is a very brand new little one.

Well, good night to you all. Will see some of you soon. God bless.

HAHAHA....I just looked at the order of the pics and it looks like we are waving good bye to Nathan on the beach....hahahaha! No, we didn't leave him there. He looks so all alone on the beach there...almost kinda sad when you look at the pics in that order! Don't worry we haven't lost anyone yet.
