Fondant cupcake with a cool 3D tidal wave scene made by one of the kids at our recent cupcake decorating party.
I thought it was cool how these grasses were bent in the direction of the last outgoing tide. Patches of snow among them tell us that winter is coming along.
And I mean *bore*! Described in the guidebooks as a wave 4" to 6' high, this viewing was definitely the 4" variety. And no belugas surfing in it either!
A scenic phenomenon caused by the surging Bay of Fundy tides, the highest in the world, the Bore occurs twice daily. The higher waters in the Bay cause the water in the placid Petitcodiac River to roll back upstream in one wave, which can range in height from 3 to 60 cm. Just as spectacular is the rapid and dramatic change in the river itself. At low tide the muddy river bottom is often visible, but within an hour of the arrival of the Bore, the water level rises some 7.5 metres (25') to fill the river to its banks. The Tidal Bore can be observed from many places around Greater Moncton, whether it be from Dieppe, Moncton or Riverview;
The water flowing down the Salmon River meets the water coming in from the rising tide of the Bay of Fundy forcing the river to backup.
Carpeted islands in different colors and combined with hard floor. The green and blue around the tidepool are made of a hard surface that is easy to clean and can get wet. Carpet is cozy and nice to sit on.
The table is made up of two separate pieces. The table can be split down the middle and reconfigured to be the backs of the benches.
