Moncton

This is my first time going on a road trip alone. I finally decided that "today is the DAY!" I left Fredericton around 6 a.m., hoping wishfully that I could stop by the market before my IAD (Instructor Assisted Deployment jump) course at 8:30 a.m. About half-way down the journey, I saw a creature standing in the middle of the road. Having heard of stories about mooses jumping onto the highway, first thing that came into mind: "Stop the car! That could be a moose!" It turned out to be a deer instead. I've seen them on the walking trail twice this summer, but not on the highway. What a shock!

Finally, I made it to the market at 8 a.m.

Guess what he's selling at the market? Foie gras!! Both fresh and preserved. I thought I'll have to visit a French restaurant in Quebec city to try it. I bought a can of preserved foie gras ($29.50) to bring home. Yumm... it's ever so good!

For breakfast, I bought a piece of blueberry tart and a Middle Eastern square. Hmm... sweets for breakfast. You got it! You know what I'm after ;)
