A day of exploring the northern area of Prince Edward Island (PEI) in sunshine – whooopee!!! You realize just how small the island is when it is only 18k from Charlottetown to the north coast. The island is approximately 200k from the west to the east coast. Not sure how many of you know the … More Charlottetown and surrounds – 29th September 2018

Oh my giddy aunt, it is wet, wet, wet and here we are heading off to walk on the ocean floor this morning – this could classify us under the category of senile!!! The sky is low, the clouds are rolling in and the rain is coming sideways at us but yet we still blundered … More Hopewell Cape to Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island – 27th September 2018

We had a few adventures today. Nothing awe inspiring but enough to keep us amused as we drove north up the Fundy Coast. Our first port of call was the Fundy Bay National Park which is rather a tiny area. We walked into the Dickson Falls which were flowing rather briskly as the Fundy area … More Sussex Corner to Hopewell Cape – 27th September 2018

Forgot to mention that we actually crossed from the province of Nova Scotia to New Brunswick yesterday. Just a bit of FYI for you. According to the Constitution of Canada New Brunswick is the only bilingual province. About two thirds of the population declare themselves anglophones and a third francophones. One third of the overall … More St Andrews to Sussex Corner – 26th September 2018

Huge travel day with us covering 620k’s in the Black Maria. We were on the road by 10.00am and headed up towards a place called South Maitland on the Shubenacadie River where you can witness one of the best examples of the tidal bore in the Bay of Fundy. Though this picture will not mean … More Wolfville to St Andrews – 25th September 2018

Sorry I didn’t post the blog earlier but the internet at the B&B was in very high demand last night and it wasn’t particularly quick in the first place! It was a little dark to take a photo of our accomodation last night and hence didn’t make the blog so we rectified that this morning. … More Wolfville and back again – 24th September 2018

Oh dear, another slow start to the day for us but that was because we were all up until midnight playing a board game. We headed out for a dim sum breakfast which was a very filling start to the day. Back to Marsh Manor to pack up the bags, put Coco in the car … More Halifax to Wolfville – 23rd September 2018

Forgot to mention in yesterday’s post about our accomodation in Mahone Bay. Whilst it was perfectly satisfactory it is never reassuring to see a For Sale sign out the front of the residence. The proprietor, whilst polite, seemed to have reached his used by date and I want out of here😃. This morning we went … More Lunenburg back to Halifax – 22nd September 2018

Today started out with us bidding a fond farewell to Allan as we headed out the door on our southerly trip along the east coast of Nova Scotia to Mahone Bay with stops on the way. Paige and Emmett had well beaten us out the door as they were off to music appreciation lessons before … More Halifax and South to Mahone Bay – 21st September 2018

Much better start today. We were on the road by 9.00am and after the short ferry ride it was time to find our way to the Citadel. The bridge in the background looks like the Golden Gate Bridge but is actually the Angus J. Macdonald bridge. On our crossing to the city of Halifax we … More More Halifax – Ooops, got me dates incorrect Now 20th September 2018
