Nova Scotia

We got our 10 year anniversary lobster feast around 10:30 on August 10 at 'the shack'. It was awesome.

Anne you sexy beast

We arrived into PEI via the confederation bridge. PEI is a lovely island that reminds me of a sleepy little cabin country. People take a lot of pride in their homes out here. Traditional colonial homes. The island is covered in graveyards, each one trying to outdo the other with an older headstone. We found headstone older than 1850 easily. Spooky. We found some pretty awesome beaches and the water was oddly very warm. Lake warm. I stopped off at the PEI distillery to try some potato vodka and their 'signature' whiskey. My mother told me to not say anything if I had nothing good to say. The vodka was good. The 3 year whiskey... (blank).



Sorry for the shite layout. I can't be bothered to hack the html to figure out how the lay up the photos better. You thought MSN butchered code... take a look at blogspot.

We split from PEI on the ferry to cross over into Nova Scotia. We arrived the evening of August 11 into Nova Scotia via New Glasgow. We had to ask a couple people if we were really in downtown as it was only about 2 blocks and completely shuttered.. other than the bar.

Today we spent in the forest riding in the area of Antigonish and generally chilling out. We were actually a bit wiped from the travel. Too much too fast.
Crashing. That is Lisa sleeping on the picnic table.



We have just arrived into Cape Breton. This place is wild. Dark and stormy and just desolate. It is really cool. We are on the Isle de Madame.  South West corner of Cape Breton.
