“I always feel like I'm on a roller-coaster, but I never want to get off! There's a certain high you're always on.” ~Leonardo DiCaprio

We spent Thanksgiving , 2012 in Moncton at a friend's apartment.  That weekend, we visited Hopewell Rocks twice, watched a lot of cable and spent 6 hours at Crystal Palace.  It is safe to say that most of that time you, Mackenzie, spent on the only roller coaster there.  The first ride made you a little nervous  but you insisted on going on again.  And after that, we couldn't pry you off!  "Let's do it again!" you would shout after ever ride.  You rode that coaster at least 50 times, most of which were in a row.  I think it may have been just the high you've been looking for.  I can hardly wait to take you back for more :-)

...And we called you "The Fish Whisperer".  That was your name for an entire day!

On our weekend away in Moncton, we spent some time at Hopewell Rocks.  It may have been one of the most glorious sites I had ever seen.  You and Mac got all muddy, you climbed rocks, and as you should have it, you saved the life of an ocean deprived fish!  It was laying there on the ocean floor, far from the water line.  When we spotted it, we thought it was dead until  you, Robert, noticed its body expand and contract.  "Save it!" I said.  "Put it back int he water!"  I'm pretty sure your swift movement was accompanied with an eye roll  but you know I wasn't going to let this fish die so, you scooped it up and off you went; releasing it back into the Atlantic Ocean.  You really saved the day; or at least, a fish :-)
