I'd returned to the UK before they introduced the red Adirondack Chairs, but went back to Nova Scotia for a holiday in 2016 and loved them. We now have 2 red Adirondack Chairs in our garden! Was nice to see these and have the little explanation - I didn't know about the recycled plastic from landfills! Interesting to hear that Magnetic Hill was the 3rd most popular attraction in the country - I guess with the rise of popularity with cars, there'd have been the novelty of being in a car, as well as the optical illusion! I'm excited to see your adventures on the Bay of Fundy, the sneak peek you gave makes me think you went tidal bore rafting!

Locals will call the National park “Kouch,” but not “the Kouch” :-). As for “pets-de-soeur,” there is no real translation to English, but I like “Holy flatulence.” Keep up the great work!

Hi guys! We’re still in Redding. Went to Lassen Natl Park today and it was pretty epic. Redding has these e-bike stations all around town and for $30 per month you can hop on any of them and ride. There’s a station right near the Sacramento River Trail and I’ve been doing a nice loop to Keswick Dam and back several times a week. We live really close to the river so I can jump on a bike from that station within minutes. I’m loving it!

@@AdventuresofAplusK Right? I ride it everyday on the Sacramento River Trail. There are some side trails that branch off and climb a bit so you can see Mt. Shasta in one direction, and Mt. Lassen in another. Redding is definitely growing on me. It's a gateway to a lot of epic mountain stuff.

Hey, I have a suggestion for filming. From Way back in Vancouver Island, I noticed that you film back side when you are walking away, but you usually never film the front side shot when walking forward toward the camera.
