Grand Manan Island

John finds sea life: a winkle, aka "wrinkle" and sea urchin.










We went for several walks on Grand Manan. Walking along the shore at low tide can be tricky business. Those rocks are slippery! Notice that behind Greg, you can see a working weir. It is kept operating by Shayne's dad.










Here is an illustration of how a weir works. Click on the picture and it should link you to a site that explains weirs.
