One of the things I really love about traveling
are the odd and interesting things you see along the way. One of those things we saw on our recent trip to the Canadian Maritimes was the World’s Largest Lobster. It’s
located in Shediac, New Brunswick. We
saw this guy on another trip to New Brunswick along with the World’s Largest
Axe, which is located in Nackawic, NB and the World’s Longest Covered Bridge
located in Hartland, NB. I think these
three things alone are worth a trip to New Brunswick so I won't even mention that you can walk on the ocean floor there, too, at Hopewell Rocks. But we didn’t have time to
stop for any of those things this time except for the lobster. Here he is:
And I was fortunate to get this shot of this
adorable kid imitating the fisherman.
While we were stopped at a traffic light, I
spied this sign advertising a Yard Sale.
It made me think that all Yard Sales would be more successful if there
were BBQs and Music included. Brilliant!
I have found that many places lay claim to the
World’s Largest Potato, but this is the largest potato that I’ve ever
seen. It’s located at The Canadian Potato Museum in O’Leary, Prince
Edward Island. I will say that I am a
big fan of potatoes and I was disappointed when we pulled into the parking lot
just as the place was closing for the day.
But that didn’t stop me from getting a shot of Greg and Olive next to
this prodigious spud. As you can see,
Olive was unimpressed.
Best bumper sticker of the entire trip.
This is not a good picture, but it’s the only driving Canada Geese we the whole time we were in Canada, so I think they deserve
to be included.
I don’t want to be left out of Theresa’s Good
Fences, so here’s one I managed to pick up along the way. Also not a good photo, but it’s a pretty cool
fence. It would look weird if it were in
Arizona, but it’s right at home on PEI.
