With 7 hours of driving ahead of us and only one stop on the list for the day we hit the road at 9 am. About 20 minutes north of Woodstock, Vicky noticed a sign with a covered bridge symbol so we decided
to check it out. We drove into Heartland, NB on the longest covered bridge in the world (1282 ft). We considered checking out the Covered Bridge Chip factory but it was a little early for chips. Back on the road we saw a sign advertising the 'World French Fry Capital' and it turns out 1/3 of the world's fries come from the McCain Factory in Florenceville-Bristol. Our only planned stop was for a zip-line at Grand Falls but it was closed for repairs, took a couple photos and back on the road. Shortly after crossing into Quebec, we saw an exit sign that had us laughing, Saint-Louis-du-Ha!Ha!, seemed like a strange name so of course we took the exit to check it out. Turns out its a parish municipality and 'haha' is an archaic French word for an unexpected obstacle or abruptly ending path but after a couple hours of staring at farmland and driving through construction zones it seemed pretty hilarious.
