Another busy day hiking. In total, did 4 trails within the Roosevelt Campobello International Park. I started with the 1 km Eagle Hill Bog. A wooden pathway allows easy access to the bog. This was followed by some beachcombing at Herring Cove Beach where I added two more walking sticks to my collection. Following more beachcombing at Raccoon Beach ( 2 more!), I started a 6 mile loop of 3 trails, leaving and returning to Raccoon Beach. On one of the trails was the Sunsweep sculpture, near Liberty Point; commemorating three national parks with boundaries in both Canada and the US. In all, the hike took around 4 hours, including some more beachcombing at Lower Duck Pond. The evening was spent at Mulholland Point Lighthouse, overlooking Lubec in the state of Maine. This is the oldest wooden lighthouse in New Brunswick built in 1885 (decommissioned in 1963). The setting sun provided some good photo opportunities and as did the seals frolicking in the harbour. A long and tiring day.
