Department store
😠 The produce must be substandard. The entire area is full of fruit flies. Shelves are always empty. And they are training us to do self check by keeping most of the cashiers closed. Sorry, I don't work there. If I have to use self check out, I expect to get the employees' discount.

👍👍 Great place to see the tidal bore, but how strong it is depends on the phase of the moon. When I was at the location the bore was tiny but still noticeable. There are other facilities here like playground, washrooms, an outdoor amphitheatre, and hiking trails. Plenty of benches that faces the river.
