A lovely scenic drive along the St.John River, then take the Gagetown ferry from Cambridge Narrows to Gagetown. Make sure you go on a Sunday,you'll get to enjoy the little market,and stroll along the main st. Cute little shops featuring local artists,baked goods,Sussex Ice-cream. I highly recommend the honey and goatsmilk bread from Grimross Farm.
