Until I visited the east coast of Canada, my knowledge of the provinces there was limited, to say the least.  We flew into Moncton, which is one of the three main cities of the province, the others being St. John and Fredricton.  New Brunswick is bordered by the American state of Maine to the south, Quebec to the north, and the Bay of Fundy and Nova Scotia to the east.

Where to Stay

There seems to be B&B's practically everywhere you look!  We went in the off-season and the rates were quite reasonable, about C$75/night for both of us including breakfast.  The majority of them are beautifully restored Victorian mansions and the owners were very helpful and friendly.  A particularly good one we found in Fundy National Park was the Florentine Manor.

Things to See and Do

In the few days we were there we did the following things:

- drove through the Fundy National Park
- saw the Hopewell rocks on the Bay of Fundy
- waited for the tidal surge at the river flowing through Moncton (poor timing, didn't see it!)
- went to the university bar in Fredricton to see the Jimmy Swift Band (superb!!)
- got caught in a blizzard driving between Fredricton and Moncton
