St John

The  St. John Marina is quite nice,  it was purchased two years ago by a construction company made of four brothers.  They have made major changes to the building and do a wonderful restaurant and wedding business.  The marina manager, Sarah, certainly knows her stuff and is very helpful.  It's about 4 miles from St. John in cotage country on the picturesque at St. Johns River.
After a day of rigging the boat and cleaning this and that,  it was time to head into town and see the sights.  I hitchhiked in and it didn't take long to get a ride.  Here I got the first glimpse of the reversing falls with the St. Johns River pouring out into the harbour.  I walked downtown and found Britt's pub and had fish tacos and a beer.  From there and I did a self-guided tour checking out the three sisters  Lampstand, the queen Square, the King Square, and the Olympic sized swimming pool.  I walked to the north quadrant looking for a hardware store and then to the west looking at a bike I saw on kijiji,  then back to the reversing  falls to watch the water run into the St. Johns River.
There's lots of heritage buildings in the downtown area which have been wonderfully restored  all with a rich history behind it.
