…or, one more “Meeting of the Waters” immersion! Today was the last day for this moon phase to experience the incoming tide. It was also the last opportunity to actually stand on the ocean floor as the waters come together and swirl around our calves. With the next full moon the Bay of Fundy waters will be significantly cooler and perhaps even downright unpleasant.
While waiting for the tide to rise we took advantage of checking out the cliffs. I was shocked by how much the sandy cliffs have suffered with all the rain this summer. There was some significant rock fall but this mudslide certainly made me pause and take note.
We enjoyed exploring the tide pools by looking for hermit crabs and other aquatic life. Before we knew it the waters began to rush around the Big Brother Island.
It was the first time for R. and M. to witness this memorable event first hand. I promised them an invigorating experience and they both agreed that they felt energized!
Happy Labour Day Monday, everyone! The mist has burned off and we are enjoying a lovely sunny afternoon.
