The Reversing Falls


We just had to see the Reversing Falls.  It was kind of cool.  What I mean by that is that the experience was worth the visit, but the hype before getting there took it down a peg or two.  We enjoyed Saint John quite a bit, but tomorrow, we're off.











Before I get into the pics, let's talk Lobster for a moment.  Yep, we sought our first Canada lobster and stumbled onto a joint known for it's lobster and other seafood--Steamers Lobster Co.





Really cool atmosphere.


This was our first experience with these types of clams.  Oh, man, are they freakin' good.  Note to all looking:  Take the cord off and rinse the clam before buttering and wolfing down.  They offer a little water cup for just that purpose and the waitress taught us how to eat 'em.

The meal started with fish chowder for us, then a bucket of clams and a tray of shrimp, followed by the Maine (no, this time it's "main") attraction, Lobster.  Again, a hardshell and a LOT of meat in there.  We finished the meal with carrot cake for Gina and blueberry cobbler a la mode for yours truly.  We wobbled out.  Wow, we were stuffed.  And for the frugal, all I can say is don't come to Canada without saving first.  With beer, the tab was well over $100 bones.

For the Reversing Falls, created this little video:
