Aug 9 – To Port Jolie


View Larger Map

It is time to pull up stakes and head to Thomas Raddell Provincial Park to work off some calories and commune with nature.

We arrived just after 1:00 pm, set up and then went for a hike around the various beaches at low tide (7 kms) and high tide. The tidal change is radical in spots, over 5’ when I measured myself to the water line on a boulder. Lots of mosquitoes here and it did not take them long to find me (5 on the left shoulder). The rocks are so sparkly, by the time I got back to the RV, my pockets were full of things; an egg shaped black & white, mica flecks; quartz encrusted, blue clam shells.

We photographed this orange mushroom that looked like a rose; so beautiful.
