Day 17 - URA

Last night was an amazing adventure, today is another. Our journey starts again in Chandler on the coast of Bourg de Pabos. This time the voice of Lamia, a Basque goddess guides us along a seaside trail giving us the keys to eight fascinating stations. Inside each of these stations you experience water in a way you have never seen before. URA means the celebration of water. This trail can be walked during the daylight or night time. The experience is available in French, English and Mi'kmaq. 
The first station, we were transported to the height of the high autumn tide.
While the first station was all about fall storms, the second station is calming and immerses one into a Mi'gmaq water purification ritual.
The next stations takes one into storms, pirates and battles in the Atlantic.
As we walked the trail each experience got more and more  interesting finally culminating to where Lumina reveals herself at the last station.

The entire experience lasted about an hour with a 1 km walk along the seaside. The trail is much easier to navigate than the one last night. Oh, and were you waiting for a picture of Lumina...well you have to wait a little longer.
