One benefit of staying in Calais is that (barring terrible weather) it buys us about 2.5 hours of potential activity time on Friday, which we could spend visiting the Bay of Fundy, or seeing something in one of the cities of Saint John or Moncton. [Saint John, NB is not to be confused with St. John's, NL, our ultimate destination]

For those who find Calais is too far a trip on Thursday, I would suggest trying instead to get to Bangor, about 2 hours short of Calais. This permits a later departure from your origin on Thursday, while still catching up with the pack somewhere in New Brunswick. The downside is that if the weather is really bad, you'll have to get an earlier start on the Friday.
