September 12, 2012. Moncton, NB. Travelling.

This is a great way to travel.  We drove for four and one half hours today and at 1:30 checked into our pre-arranged motel.   After a shower, we both took a nap.  Ken had already listed the four best restaurants in Moncton so while Ken was checking into the motel, I booked us for an early dinner.   Because we missed the restaurant, we drove all around the very attractive downtown area.  After parking we walked along the boardwalk, which runs right beside the river for a distance of many miles.  It was busy with local folks walking and biking.  The river is a tidal river that fills and empties from the Bay of Fundy.

Dinner was delicious and as we were the only customers in the restaurant, the service was superb too.  By the time we were leaving at 6:30, the place was filling up.   So here we are, staying in a new city, with the rest of the evening to read.  

Moncton seems to be a busy place.  We have seen several buildings under construction and the down town area is delightful.  Restaurants can be found all over town.   We enjoyed the travel today and our system seems to agree with us.    Everything in our garden is rosy...at least for today.
