We spend a great day at Kouchibouguac National Park on the New Brunswick coast. Marsh, forest, bog, lagoon and white sand barrier island. We see herons, fat rodent thing, hummingbird and your usual woodland creatures. We crane our necks continually to catch a glimpse of a moose… but nowt. Second full day on the new tyres and I spot a massive nail in it. It seems at the time of writing to have only pierced the tread which is around an inch thicker than it was the previous morning. I think this is lucky and I’ll take it as a positive sign. Everything is getting a bit more frenchy as we approach Quebec. A fascinating, welcome and tasty change.
