Yogi Bear & the Jellystone Park
All right. We confess. We really didn’t know what it would be like. We stayed at the Yogi Bear Jellystone RV Park in Woodstock, New Brunswick. We got the “couples discount”. Still never clued in. There were great big signs with Yogi Bear everywhere. Lots of kids. Still no clue. I did wonder why the lady in the office referred to herself as the “Park Ranger”. And once we were parked why the loudspeaker kept announcing all these little kiddie events that were happening every 1/2 hour or so. Blame it on being travel tired. I finally clued in when the tractor pulling the hay wagon drove by with Yogi Bear accompanied by a troup of children of all ages. There was another Park Ranger singing silly kiddie songs through her microphone. Ok, I get it now! Duh! It was a kiddie park! Santa had to go into hiding. We didn’t want a mob around us.
While in New Brunswick, we visited the Magnetic Hill in Moncton. Who would have believed that our truck and rig could roll UP a hill! Yes, I know, it is an optical illusion but sure looks like you are going uphill. The cars back up (down) the hill but because we were towing, we had to put it in neutral and roll up (down) the hill. I also saw a vineyard on the hillside while we were driving in that area. I didn’t know that grapes could survive the harsher winters. The hill has become quite the tourist attraction. We had to pay $5 just to roll down that hill.
