Whale watching trip - not!
... out onto some far rocks, as we had seen at Seal Cove.
We took the 5:25 pm ferry back to long island and made it to Sandy Cove, a couple of kilometres from our lodging, an hour before sunset. The fog had lifted from this area of Digby Neck and it was a lovely sunny evening, although it was still possible to see the fog bank in the west. The tide was out and the sandy beach looked perfect. JB went off to take sunset pictures, while I went to find some ...

Perhaps the St. Lawrence Seaway and Cape Highlands National Park has spoiled us for sightseeing.
We lunched at a place called Ludenburg. It’s a World Heritage Site, so ...
Beautiful coast of Nova Scotia
We've been slowing driving the Lighthouse Route in Nova Scotia for the last couple of days since leaving Halifax. Our first attraction was Peggy’s Cove. With a population of only about 100 you wouldn’t think there was a lot to see but it is an amazing little place.
