Get outdoors rain or shine!

The start:)

Ahhhh another great hike in Fundy today! The day was threatening for thunder showers (less than 5 mm though) with sunny periods and it was just that! My mom and i went to Fundy today and hiked the Moosehorn and Laverty Falls which Moosehorn goes into. What an awesome hike! It's about 8.3 km and Moosehorn is quite difficult at times we felt like billy goats climbing up rocks and around them. We saw 3 or 4 huge waterfalls and lot's of little ones. Laverty and Moosehorn are probably my favorite trails at Fundy. We brought miss Laila bum and she had a ball too and is currently passed out on her bed. She is DONE.

If there is one thing you do this summer it's get out and explore Fundy. It's gorgeous and the trails are awesome. One of my goals this summer/fall is to hike all the trails i even bought a season pass today since it'll pay for itself in 4 trips and it makes me accountable. I can't let it go to waste now can i? My goal is to go to Fundy every Sunday i possibly can rain or shine! Today we didn't let the threat of severe thunderstorms scare us away and we are so glad we went. My mom and i are beat! We were so mellow and chill on the beautiful drive back home. Just sat and cruised along a couple times i was way under the speed limit something unusual for me as i'm normally always rushing around from point A to point B...but lately i have been taking my time more, you miss so much when you are constantly rushing around. It's so nice to just breath and be in the moment. 

Laverty Falls

The storm started to roll in about 3/4 through the trail. It was crazy the thunder was so loud, yet where we were on the trail it was clear with a few white fluffy clouds. Then we got closer to the Laverty falls and saw the big dark menacing cloud. The whole hike up the Laverty Falls trail we could here it yet the sun was trying to shine through up ahead. It started to pour too but the trees were so lush and thick they canopied over us and kept us dry and we could hear the huge rain drops hitting the leaves with the odd one making it through to us. 

On the way back through Alma, we stopped at a cute organic cafe called An Octopus Garden Artisan cafe and bake shop. I love it (you must check it out the next time you are in Alma, it's on the left hand side right beside the pizza place as you come in). I stopped a few weeks ago when Laila and i went for our first hike. It's an artisan cafe/gallery and has some art, knit clothing and blown glass on display in a gallery upstairs. My mom and i got some loose Fruity green tea to go and i got a gluten free Peanut butter chocolate square OMG it was heaven. So yummy...my mom's square was called Mermaid something. I wish i could remember now as it was a cute name. We even discovered that they have live music as well as jam nights on Friday evenings. I will definitely make a trip out just for the live music.

The end:)

Hope you all had a great weekend and got outdoors a bit. If not get outside this week and next weekend too for hike or a nice walk. Hope you all have an awesome week. Fingers crossed for some more sunshine after all this rain.
