Day Six - Moncton

We enjoyed a delicious breakfast in Fredricton at Cora's. Fredricton is a really beautiful city.

This is City hall

We walked by the St. John River to get some fresh air and exercise for the drive to Moncton.
I made sure to make a reservation in Moncton so that we had a shower and bed waiting for us.
When we arrived to the city we had to burn a couple hours until we could check in so we explored the city a little. It definitely wasn't as charming as Fredricton but we did check out Magnetic Hill.



It cost 5 dollars. They let you drive your car to what looks like the bottom of a hill. What looks like the bottom is actually 10 ft higher then what looks like the middle point on the way down. So when you are at the 'bottom of the hill' and you put you car in neutral it will start to roll back to where you started. It's a tricky optical illusion.


After stopping for some food we got to the hotel and the room for us was ready early. Finally a shower and bed. We'll see how things go on our trip tomorrow to Nova Scotia.
