Great adventures in diving, RVing and travel
Cindy Kratzer 
We’ve been gone 9 weeks and have traveled over 6000 miles in the RV. We just began Phase III of our trip (visiting Quebec and Ontario). And this phase has started off with a bang! We left New Brunswick and traveled around multiple little peninsulas and bays to get to …
When last we visited New Brunswick (three weeks ago), we concentrated on the coast of the Bay of Fundy (see “Fundy Fun Days” post). After visiting Prince Edward Island, we now had the chance to explore the northeastern coast of New Brunswick, which is heavily French-speaking/Acadian. Back in the 1600s, …
Ever since I watched the PBS series of Anne of Green Gables, I’ve wanted to go to Prince Edward Island. Sometimes the reality doesn’t match up to the anticipation, but in this case, the reality was every bit as good as what we had hoped for. We traveled across the …
While Cape Bretoners might grumble about being part of Nova Scotia, the island above the mainland of Nova Scotia is technically a part of the province, having been annexed to Nova Scotia in 1820. And what a beautiful place Cape Breton is, especially now that spring has finally arrived in …
At the Canadian border a couple of weeks ago, they asked us if we had any weapons. We said no. We lied… But our weapons were for fighting the billions of little black flies and mosquitoes that we faced on this part of the trip. We came prepared. Why …
We’ve had 8 fun days around the 170-mile-long Bay of Fundy, staying in 4 different locations (see map below), so we could experience the variety of this place. While most people have heard of the Bay of Fundy because of its extreme tides, we really didn’t have a good visual …
Yes, we could have included Acadia in our last post on Northern New England, but it deserves a post all to itself. While we had another rainy day driving across the state of Maine, the sun came out in the early evening, and we explored the “quietside of Acadia” in …
Leaving Cape Cod and heading around (not through) Boston, we drove to upstate Vermont, enjoying the beauty of the mountains and trees. We learned in Shenandoah, and it’s been true ever since, that the trees’ leaves in the spring give a hint of what they will be like in the …
What a lovely drive we had through southern Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, making our way to Scusset Beach State Reservation (state park) on Cape Cod Bay. This was one of the easiest state parks we’ve tried to get into—no windy roads or flooded streets. Located just a little way …
Driving an RV around the New York City metro area is not for the faint of heart! Nor is trying to see the sights of this city in two rainy days. But we did it and lived to tell the tale, so here goes! We once again brought the rain …
