Travelling from Toronto to Dartmouth we were higher than Thunder Bay and bordering the Appalachians on the right side and the St Lawrence River on the left. We passed graffiti painted on the stone that read 'Mort aux taxes', 'Qui', and 'Pink Floyd rocks'. As we drove from Edmunston NB to Fredricton we saw the new highway being built that will probably replace the existing scenic river route, and reduce the time for the drive dramatically. We wondered if a highway from Edmunston to Moncton was being planned, since it would definitely reduce the drive time.
Driving through New Brunswick we learned that it's still awfully cold there, even to the point of expecting snow - there was still remnants of snow in the trees and some roofs as we drove from Fredricton to Moncton.
As we drove past Truro in the dark we were surprised at how big the city seemed to be with all of the lights. The trip from Truro to Dartmouth was quick, taking about 35 minutes. Once we arrived in Dartmouth we were surprised at how quickly you can get around. The highways run around the city and link up Bedford/Dartmouth and Halifax. It's very easy to get around, and you can easily travel from the country to the city in 10 - 15 minutes.

If Quebec were to separate that would take and additional 4-5 hours off the drive.
