Thought it might be interesting to some to share our travel experiences so that others get an idea of places they've never been to or in some cases never even heard of. I'm in New Brunswick Canada at the moment dealing with some family issues. Today the wife & I decided to have a break and take a short trip up the coast to a place called St. Martins which is located on the Bay of Fundy coastline. Here's some information on St. Martins & why people visit this place. https://stmartinscanada.com/local-attractions/tidal-harbour/ The Bay of Fundy is known for having the greatest tidal differential in the world ( and the coldest water ). Difference between high & low tide averages around 28 feet, as opposed to the world average of 3 feet, and has been recorded as being up to 60 ft. in places under the right atmospheric conditions! In addition to all this, it's a picturesque little town spotted with old wooden covered bridges and it is home to a series of sea caves which are a Unesco World Heritage site. The caves are only accessible at low tide. This is low tide in the harbour at St, Martins village. Low tide at St. Martins beach which is where the sea caves are located. The water line at low tide is several hundred feet down the beach. I marked the high tide water line with a red marker to show the difference between tides. As a scale reference, there's a 6 foot person standing at the water line upper left of this photo. You can barely make them out. Unfortunately, the angle of the sun was such it did not allow for decent photos of the caves which are located on the left side of St. Martins beach. As you can see, the beach is filled with rocks (not much sand). These rocks are both unique and recognizable from any other rock I have ever seen. Due to the massive tidal forces these rocks are exposed to twice daily, they are all rounded and worn smooth. In addition to this, many have a pock-mark appearance to them due to repeated battering against other rocks on the beach. And of course, like any other tourist place, St. Martins has it's share of eateries from formal to road-side shacks. Most only open from May- early Oct. yearly because that's high season for tourism. The only place open on our visit in November was this ice cream parlor along the road leading into town. And NO, I didn't buy a Camo Hoodie

We'll help you through and answer any questions you may have. There's also a wealth of information here so have a look around at the pinned posts top of a number of pages and there's a video library that addresses almost every aspect of quitting!

Welcome to the quit train activeonly! You'll find a lot of support and information here that will help you on your quit journey. Everyone here is a nicotine addict, like yourself.

Nice Job Jswiss!

Nice day here on the East Coast of Canada! Sunny & warm, at least for this time of year, so we took a drive down to my cousin's place. He owns a seafood wholesaling company. We grabbed us a few lobster fresh off the boat this morning and cooked those tasty little shellfish up for our meal this evening. You can't beat the taste of fresh from the ocean Atlantic lobster, cooked same day. They just don't travel well so we can't eat them at home any more. The taste is just never the same as fresh.

5 Sticks board of Chickerie has tabled a new game rule. "Rule #345: Third consecutive score posted by a chick must be posted by a different chick than those posting first and second score." All sticks in favor say aye!

Now I'm sad I let my mates down by not being there to stop this slaughter.

Nope!

Yup! The newness of your early quit is gone and maintaining it can still be tough at times especially when those odd strong cravings come out of nowhere. This is the time you need this support group the most because unlike non-smoking family & friends, we really do get it. We know what it's like - been there ourselves. Carry on. You know what how to beat the cravings by now and know that things will only continue to get better as time marches on
