Drove from Bangor, Maine to Roosevelt Campobello International Park on an island just inside Canada - thus went through customs. This was the place that FD Roosevelt summered with his parents from the time he was 1 year old until he was 38 and contacted polio - 1921. He took his wife and 5 kids - and a number of servants - there for many years. We were able to tour the "cottage" 18 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and no electricity. The water was gravity fed.
We walked the grounds some and down to the beach and then headed back, and through customs. Ate at Lubec, Maine the eastern most town in the United States. Karen had a very rich crab stew - so good.
Drove a while and entered New Brunswick 3pm Atlantic time, 11am Pacific time. Saw a sign for a chocolate factory and museum in St. Stephen and had some time so stopped. We were actually able to watch a lady make hand make chocolates. This lady, and another, make fudge from scratch, make individual little balls from the fudge, then hand dip it in chocolate and make a certain design on top that tells what the candy is. The company is Ganong Chocolate and the Ganong family has owned and operated it since 1873. In fact they still use some of the original machines. It was worth the stop.
Staying in St. John New Brunswick, Canada. The first thing we saw when we existed the highway was Costco. From our motel room we can see McDonald's, Wendy's, Subway, Michael's just to name a few. Are we really in Canada?
