Maine, Canada, and Scotland

We got to Maine and met up with my mom’s friend and went got lobster for the first time, which tasted weird, and ice cream. Then we headed up north to a small town on the border of Canada to get food and supplies before crossing the border. After we got into Canada we drove to the Bay of Fundy, which is the coolest thing I’ve seen on this trip so far. We stayed there for about an three hours till we headed back to the camper. The transmisson hose sprung a leak and spewed transmission fluid all over the ground. We stayed at the park for another hour cleaning up the fluid, before we drove slowly to a store to get some more fluid. We returned to the bay to see the high tide, which had risen about twenty feet. We headed out to Halifax. We arrived at Halifax the next day and slept in a Wal-Mart parking lot and had frozen meals for dinner that night. When we woke up we were in a transmission shop parking lot, and we were about to have our transmission rebuilt. The people at the shop bumped us up ahead of the four other cars because we had to ship out in the morning. It took them nine hours to rebuild the transmission. We drove to a KoA just outside of Halifax and all took showers and did laundry. The next morning we dropped off my mom, my brother and my sisters at the airport, and me and my dad went to the shipping yard to drop off our camper for shipment. After that we met up with my mom and sisters in downtown to walk around. We visited the Alantic Museum, which had a exhibit on the Halifax Explosion, the largest man made explosion before the nuclear bomb. We took a ferry over to the bus station and got pizza to take to the airport. The flight was five and a half hours long. We landed in Glasgow and took a bus the the main bus terminal. From there we took a bus to Edenburgh, which took and hour, and walked to our apartment in the Royal Mile. We sat around the first day. I couldn’t fall asleep to 4 AM that night. The next day, my mom, dad, Sylvia and I walked to the store to get food and took a bus back to the house. My dad and Jack went out to a casino and me and rest my my family stayed home.
