…my sweet little girl is 8 today
Our trip to the east coast has fallen on three days of celebration, Thanksgiving, Winnie’s birthday and her father’s birthday.
We started today with a special breakfast at Steve’s Diner in Riverview.
After breakfast we drove to The Green Pig to walk through the corn maze.
Later in the day we continued the birthday celebration with breaking a piñata, a sushi dinner (Winnie’s favourite food), opening presents and birthday cupcakes.
….driving through Shediac, Cormierville and Bouctouche
It was another beautiful day for a road trip.
On our way to Bouctouche we stopped by a roadside shop that specialized in antiques and wood carvings. The owner lovingly explained how all the objects that we were looking at were carved from one block of wood by her very talented husband who had passed six years ago.
Charles Bernard had a very colourful history and apparently learned how to carve wood when he was serving time in the penitentiary. He lived in Bouctouche with his wife for 15 years where they ran the wood carving shop and antiques store.
The shop is located right on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean.
