Our plans were thrown into chaos this morning thanks to the exceptionally crappy weather that we awoke to. Our original idea was to go to Louisbourg which involves a lot of outside walking so we did the big switcheroozie and drove to Sydney to the Miners Museum. We had heard that it was one of … More Sydney, Cape Breton – 3rd October 2018

The day started off really well with us spending some time after our breakfast in the old Railway Station, to have another look around the site. We could have spent a lot more time just wandering around and enjoying all the different things to see that this guy had collected over the many years. We … More Tatamagouche to Baddeck – 2nd October 2018

Great day from many different aspects. We started out by heading into the centre of Charlottetown to go to Province House which is holy ground for Canadians as this was where they had the initial discussions to confederate British Colonies within North America to form the new nation of Canada. Province House unfortunately was not … More Charlottetown to Tatamagouche – 1st October 2018

Not a long blog tonight or one full of facts, figures or historical information. That will come tomorrow after our visit to the Center of Charlottetown. Every time we tick something off the bucket list, something else goes on, but this particular item has been there for quite some time though not sure if we … More Pumpkins and Lighthouses – 30th September 2018

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
