Vacation Day2-3

On his second day in Acadia National Park, Preston did some hard-core hiking. Mommy and Daddy picked a more strenous trail (Acadia Mountain Trail). Even an experienced hiker like Preston needed a little help from Mommy and Daddy on this trail.

Apparently, a couple of hours of hiking wasn’t enough to tire Preston out. He went for a swim as soon as we arrived at Echo Lake.

On day three, Preston visited The Hopewell Rocks in New Brunswick, Canada. The world’s highest average tides are found here. These tides have created interesting rock formations.

Preston visited during low tide. The scenery at high tide is very different.

After leaving The Hopewell Rocks, Preston crossed The 8 mile (13 km) long Confederation Bridge from Canada mainland to Prince Edward Island. It was raining all afternoon so Preston couldn’t go to the beach as planned. Mommy and Daddy did get to visit the famous Green Gables (as in “Anne of Green Gables” novels by Lucy Maud Montgomery).

    Oh my goodness what treacherous terrain you were climbing Preston! Good thing your Mommy is strong so she can help you up and down some of those steep cliffs!!
    Did you have to have a bath after the chocolate paw incident? Or maybe you just went for another swim? You sure go on the best puggle vacations!

    Hugs and Licks, Bruschi

  2. What a blast you are having, Preston! Our mom has always wanted to visit Prince Edward Island! You got there before she did!

    Love ya lots,
    Maggie and Mitch

  3. How on earth is your mom able to pick you up AND carry her camera! That looks like quite a hike!

  4. How are you all not exhausted after all that? I’m usually pooped after a 20 min. walk around the neighborhood….granted it is 96 degrees already.

    It looks like you three are having a blast! Keep the pictures coming!

    Hugs,

    Puggles are great hikers. 2.5 miles roundtrip is nowhere near strenuous. Our Franklin happily went 12 miles with 2,000 ft elevation gain at 11-13,000 ft!
