Every once in a while you get a challenge that is all-consuming! I spent the day getting ready for a special beach treasure hunt tour with a young family from Toronto tomorrow!
The Fundy Geological Museum passed my name on three weeks ago suggesting I might be able to take two young girls (7 and 11 years old) on a treasure hunting trip with her parents. I have been planning, sewing rock collectors backpacks, drawing a simple map to mark their finds, gathering rock identification resources and finding special snacks to pack.
I ordered 10x magnifying glasses, found a couple treasure bags that each contain a special dinosaur mood ring to be awarded at the end of our treasure hunt!
We are headed to Wasson’s Bluff to first look for “Mermaid Tears” in the pink sand and then we head over to the Two Islands to watch the tide come in following our observation of hermit crabs and other sea life.
My backpack is ready! Looking forward to meeting the family in the morning. Check back later tomorrow afternoon for a detailed report and pictures. Cheers, Anna
