On the way to the Bay of Fundy along Route 111, we saw our first indication that fall is around the corner as some of the maple trees are beginning to turn red.

The harbor at St. Martins totally empties at low tide. I guess this is a case of the fishermen having to live by the tides. All the lobster pots were piled on the dock or on the barge you see in the middle of the harbor.

This 1935 covered bridge stands at the mouth of the Irish River where it empties into the St. Martins Harbor. We drove through it on our way to the Fundy Trail.

Hardscabble Bridge was built in 1946 and is about 75 feet long. It is just upriver from Irish Bridge (which is also about 75 feet long) so they are called the twin bridges. The day was overcast but the reflection in the pond was incredible. The sculpture in the pond was supposed to represent the interaction of man and the water.

Rising around the village of St. Martins are red sea cliffs and caves where the highest tides in the world sweep in and out. At low tide, you can walk the ocean floor into the sea caves.

Along the Fundy Trail Parkway we were able to see the coastline and beaches as well as this neat waterfall. Because of the time of year, the falls were not at their fullest but were still beautiful.

We couldn't resist including this photo of the steps down to the falls. See everyone, we are getting a little exercise. Tryna was a little leery of going down but she braved it and was glad. There were 60 steps and they were actually easier to come up than regular steps.

The Village of St. Martins has it all - covered bridges, sea caves, beautiful beaches, the Fundy Trail Parkway, some of the best seafood chowder Al has eaten and this quaint lighthouse.
