My first camping trip to New Brunswick Canada was to Fundy National Park. A diverse biosphere, there's lots to explore here from the world's largest tides to the thick lush forests and cascading water falls.

You Slim are an amazing story teller and video creator. So few KZfaq creators slow down enough to really immerse the viewers into the essence of the place. Love the time lapse of tide & beach fog. Thank you, as always, for allowing me to travel with you via video. It soothes this disabled, housebound, nature lovers soul. 🍁🇨🇦 🕊

Oh some folks take trips in luxury Ships, And some in gasoline wagons (JEEP) And others swear by the upper air on the wings of Flying Dragons, Let each make haste to indulge their taste, Be it beer, champagne, or hard cider, but my favorite joy as a man and a boy is being Fundy Bay Ferry Rider (If you can get a ticket on)

Greetings from Alberta. We stayed at Fundy Nat'l Park in May 2017. The campground was closed, but they had 6 or 7 sites open for early season travelers like us. Enjoyed a great seafood meal in Alma. It's short walk from the campground. Get out your sou'wester, slicker and rubber boots and enjoy your east coast explorations. We certainly enjoyed ours.

I see it took 3 or 4 angles to get you driving across the main attraction, the bridge. The waterfall was beautiful and at 1/4 speed, that was cool. You're really out-doing yourself. You're storytelling is exceptional as well. I love camping with you -all without leaving my cabin.
