We're On the Road in Nova Scotia


We have been full timing it since September 23rd and finally got around to putting together this blog. Lets start at the beginning...We left North Carolina and headed north. Our goal: Nova Scotia, Canada in 5 days or less! Arrived on Thursday, September 27th at the Board of Trade Campground/Visitors center in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. We are overlooking the bay on a bluff.

Today, we went to Peggy's Cove and saw the famous and most photographed lighthouse on the North American Continent. The area the lighthouse stands on reminded us of an alien landscape. For a fall day, there were many people milling around and the buses were bringing them in non-stop. Apparently a cruise ship was docked in Halifax and these folks were making the rounds.

Speaking of Halifax, we spent some time there as well. We did see the cruise ship and the entire waterfront area. We also visited a couple historic churches and saw the old clock tower on the hill. I was more interested
in the hockey arena, but no games on tap today!!
