We folow the touristic coastal road towards Kouchibouguac National Park. Out of the three options offered to us : walking, kayaking or cycling, we choose the last one.
We ride 27 km, including 6.5 km of mountain bike trail, which our body will remember for long.
It's on our way to our next bivouac to " la Pointe de Puche" that we see our first caribou...
Beeing professional photographers, our cameras are safely stored in the camper!!!

Bye Bye Nova Scotia! We drive this morning under heavy rain to New Brunswick also called Acadia.
What is now New Brunswick was originaly the land of the Mi'kmaq and the Maliseet Aboriginals. The French colonists arrived in 1600 and farmed around the Bay of Fundy. In 1755 they were expelled by the English. In the years following, the outbreak of the american revolution brought an influx of british loyalists seeking refuge there.
We follow the coastal road ui to Shediac, the "lobster world capital city". Very touristic and overcrowded, it's hardly possible to join the town center. So we turn back not without buying two lobsters for our diner.
In the afternoon, we find a bivouac at the "Bouctouche dune".
Sun is back and invites us to walk along a wooden trail on this 12 km long dune.
Since our arrival in Canada, we've met quite a few "camper travellers" from Quebec who always cheer us with a warm welcome as soon as they know we're french.
