Englishman River Falls Provincial Park, French Creek Marina and Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park

So fully refreshed and wanting to see what today will bring, we followed trip advisors suggestion and went to Englishman River Falls. 

It is an ancient forest with gigantic old trees growing in all directions. 

  We followed the trails to the upper and lower waterfalls. It has 2 bridges over the river and great views of the water falls. The circular walk wound up and down steeply through the forest. I’m so fit now! AND for once I didn’t get one mosquito bite. Moss grew all over some trees and there were beautiful ferns in many varieties. The sun was filtering through the many trees and glistening on the water below, it was magical. 

 
  We chatted to 2 Canadian guys for a while. Canadians are so friendly and love a chat we’ve found!

By now it was lunch time and so we headed for French Creek Marina to take more photos ( we have THOUSANDS now) it was a bit smelly of seaweed and harbour smells but fascinating.  

 We had a pub lunch and again felt like we were in a mixture of France and Ireland. The sun was shining and in the car park several vintage cars were parked all clean and well cared for. Hope you like the photos.  

   We watched 3 eagles soaring over the boats and sea and sat on a bench which said ” sit and enjoy the moment” …well we certainly did.

Next we went to Rathtrevor beach for a sleep! Again very peaceful and a bald headed eagle spotted over the sea in front of us. There are hundreds of shells and pieces of driftwood here and all along the coastline. It’s a shame I can’t bring any home for our garden.

Hope you are all ok and am missing you all very much..time is ticking by and I will be sad when our holiday is over, but will be very pleased to see you all again. Xxxxx
