Old sites, BIG stuff and Upper Canada Pumpkinferno

Passing back through New Brunswick on route to Quebec, we hadn’t planned on doing or seeing anything but stuff just happened and I didn’t want to miss posting fun things … so here it is 😁

Kings Landing was created in the late 1960s when the Mactaquac Dam threatened to flood many of the historic buildings in the Saint John River valley. Over 70 historic buildings were saved and either moved to the Kings Landing site or were disassembled and reconstructed at the site. Our visit to Kings Landing transported us back to 19^th century New Brunswick, complete with full-costumed, and in character residents! We had the best day here! and kept thinking of people we knew who would also love to visit this place.

We looked at this interesting thing for a while and could not figure out what it would be used for but it sure was sturdy and the very smooth wood indicated it had been well used

Visited two ‘WORLD’S LARGEST‘ things all in the same day!
