After a cold (40 degrees or so) night and morning, we packed up and drove to a lakeside picnic location in Fundy National Park to eat breakfast. After a quick meal of cereal and yogurt, because our milk went sour, we headed out towards Saint John. Saint John is never abbreviated so as not to confuse it with the St John in Newfoundland. It is a large city, probably the largest we’d been to on the trip in Canada. We parked and went to the city market, a place full of fresh fruit, vegetables, meats, and seafood. The market was not as large as some of the others we have been to (Seattle, Firenze) but they had some stands hawking fresh food and we partook of some of that.

After walking around what we learned was the “uptown” of Saint John, it started to rain and we got back on the road and headed towards Saint Andrews. St Andrews has a fairly long commercial district on Water Street with lots of little shops and restaurants. We walked around and bought some fresh fudge (maple chocolate and rum butter). We wanted to go to nearby St Stephen’s chocolate museum but it was almost closing time, so we instead crossed over the border into the US at Calais, Maine. We drove towards Bangor and stopped in Eddington for the night at Greenwood Acres campground. The sites for this campground were nice and private but the facilities were a bit outdated. That night was very cold as well, so we made what turned out to be our last fire of the trip.
