Last week when Mom and Heather were still here, we went to Peggy's Cove and
Lunenburg (and drove through
Mahone Bay which looked very pretty but we didn't stop--next time). It isn't far but we took the coastal road which is windy and slow--but it meant we got to see a lot of cute little villages and some fabulous scenery. We stopped at Peggy's Cove and wandered the rocks and then had lunch (seafood chowder which is, according to locals, a MUST at Peggy's) before we went to
Lunenburg. It was a full day--we left in the morning and didn't get back until after 5. James is an excellent traveller--he sleeps in the car really well and is barely fussy at all.
This is the scenery on the road to Peggy's Cove. I took this through the window of the car while zipping along at 60-80km so I have to say I love the "Sport" setting on my camera. It is very rocky and marshy and quite lovely. This is a cove or inlet (or something) and the tide is out so you can see the wet shoreline that will, later, be covered by ocean.

People have been swept away by waves or have slipped on wet rocks and fallen in so they have warnings--which didn't seem to help as a lot of people were very close to the ocean (we stayed at a good distance but we did go on the dry rocks).
The new family at Peggy's Cove (James was so impressed he had to sleep through most of it). The ocean was amazingly blue.
Jamie the sleepy boy and Daddy at Peggy's Cove (and there are more pictures in the next posting--too many for one).
