Whelbourns in Canada

• Sunday 4 May 2008 - More Flood photos and it is receding

 

A few more photos from the flooded Fredericton.

Officers Square, under water.

The Road is now part of the river
Which way to the river bank walk?

The waters are now receding and the clear up begins. We are high on a hill so not affected by the flooding but a friend of mine was evacuated from his house and it will need extensive renovations.

Other than thinking about the flood we have had a pretty good weekend.

.

On Saturday we visited the Mactaquac Beaver Trail for the first time without snow shoes and we saw our first Beaver this year, Julie spotted it, and the Bald Eagle flying over our back garden. She is becoming a regular hawkeye. While walking a Jack Rabbit hopped across the path and sat and looked at us for a couple of minutes before hopping into the woods. You can tell the animals are on a reserve because they have little fear of humans.

.

Sunday saw us invite some newbies to NB from the UK for Sunday lunch with Ceri and her kids. The couple come from Tamworth with their two young kids and are using the Provincial Nominee Route to come to New Brunswick, they are expecting to land next February or March (Brrrr not a time I would choose to land).

Tonight we stayed in, and watched Dexter. This is one of the strangest series I have ever watched. It is very addictive and the star character is forensic blood splatter expert and a serial killer! Series one has just finished and Series two is scheduled to start soon. If you get chance to get hold of a copy watch it. I am sure you will find it fascinating viewing.
