Day 5 and heading to "The Rock"



Chowder in Lunenburg

Kouchibouguac NP - NB Saw a Piping Plover

Bluenose II Restoration in Lunenburg
Here we are in Salmon Bridge on Hwy. 7 East - an hour's drive east of Halifax on our way to North Sydney and our B & B - heading to "The Rock" tomorrow and can hardly wait to get on the ferry.  Have covered lots of km so far - first day we got just under a 1000 km under our wheels - have slowed down now in NB and NS and are taking in great views, parks, towns.   Did a nice slow cruise through to Lunenburg and Mahone Bay yesterday - will save Peggy's Cove for our start home.  Up to yesterday weather has been fine for touring - are into a bit of  "biblical" weather (so said from the clerk in the NSLC - Nova Scotian for LCBO).  Raining good as they say - but forcast to clear for tomorrow, our cruise.

K & M are having a ball - sharing the driving - navigating - chowder - and the odd glass of vino - hmmm!  CAMPING???????........well, we've got the gear  - but it is cosy and dry in the van - motels and B & B's are the game so far........Fell into a fabulous one last night - at the moment looking out over the water (thru the rain), good seafood melt last night with dessert  and good chat till late last night with a couple from San Franciso - good sleep in wonderful beds and breakfast is coming up soon.

The updates to our blog will be spotty till I get my laptop fixed.  Seems I can't access the internet - got a fella from Staples in Halifax to troubleshoot - he did - but today back to the same problem - am using the B & B laptop - so folks, no pics yet - but stay tuned - will try to get back on the web asap.

On the Road Again..........Hugs to all - K & M -

  1. I could do that kind of camping! Sounds as if you are having a great time -- and the best is yet to come!
