Long Island arch in Nova Scotia that recently disappeared - photographed during our 2012 visit to the Bay of Fundy

In July of 2012 we vacationed down east visiting New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI and I will add Cape Breton cause it just seems like it's own place.
On one night of our journey we camped at the Five Islands Ocean Resort and RV Campground. a decent place to camp right on the Bay of Fundy with the Five Islands lurking in the bay.
I must admit the tides in the Bay of Fundy are absolutely astounding.  It is simply amazing to see all that water disappear.  Soon afterwards the clam diggers appear on the now uncovered sea bed and go about their business.

Sadly as of this Monday night(Oct.17,2015) the arch is no more.
