Hopewell Rocks
Yesterday I went to see the Hopewell Rocks. It was the first time I went to see them in about 10 years and much has changed since that last visit. They are now charging $8/person and it’s a 1km walk through a trail to see the Rocks. The last time I went it was free and the parking lot was right next to the stairs for going down to the ocean floor. They have now commercialized it with a gift shop, restaurant, and other ‘tourist trap’ amenities. It was still quite impressive to see how many tourists are fascinated with these rocks. The parking lot was filled with cars from almost every state and province.
As usual, the pictures can be found in the gallery.
Awesome pics trev!
Once again, you have made both my work laptop and my home desktop. (Picture of the Pedicodiac (I think it is at least) with the Moncton Syline in the background at home, and a picture of Hopewell rocks at work).
Very nice! Have you ever gone down to Alma? There is a backery there that has the most amazing sticky buns ever made. Delicious! I used to make it a point to go down towards Alma when I worked for the School District just to get a half dozen…
