Atlantic Canada is beautiful!

Charlottetown, Canada


Well, just crossed Confederation Bridge into PEI. Am at the tourist info centre, and time on the computer is limited. will attempt to get to a public library next week to post photos and stories. Was in Moncton yesterday, got sucked into spending $5. to experience the "Magnetic Hill" yes, and one of the teenagers running the site took a wee recording of it with my camera... also in Moncton, had to stop and take a picture of the Macdonald's sign, which said: The McLobster is Back! No, I didn't get one. Because I can imagine what they do to the poor things...
weather has been cloudy/sunny, and relatively cool. perfect driving weather.
today, I'll travel east on the #1 across PEI, visit Little Sands (where some ancestors settled), then ferry back across to Nova Scotia, and settle into a campground (the Provincial ones are the best, will write about the private one I stayed at in Limoges, Quebec, later)... Tomorro I'll be in Cape Breton!
love to all,
lucy

Nova Scotia again...

Pictou, Canada


Mmmm, crossed the Northumberland Strait by ferry (75 minutes), with a glorious 5 minute thunderstorm to begin with, then magnificent clouds and rainbow above the sea. Now in Pictou, Nova Scotia, the sun is shining again, just in time for me to set up camp. I think I may find some lobster to eat for my supper.Today the Lobster Carnival begins. Will be meeting up with Pam tomorrow in Sydney. Then up we go to Dingwall, Cape Breton Island.

Fredericton, Canada

The drive has been long. spent some time in Ottawa, and also the old part of Quebec City. will post photos later, this joint is closing soon. Weather cloudy and cool, so driving etc very comfortable. More writing tomorrow, from perhaps Frederickton.
best wishes to us all.

getting ready

Calgary, Canada


So, yeah, I've got the camera (now just have to learn how to use it). and I probably should buy some bug spray and oh yes, get some more maps I suppose. Might help. Really, I'm travelling alone and winging it for the most part. I've had very good travels and luck in the past with that philosophy. But, I've got three weeks before I head out, so I probably won't post again until I'm underway.... Going across Canada has been a desire for some years now. And having the opportunity to work a little in Cape Breton has meant it's happenin'! Yippee!!!

OK, I'll be back here on blogabond perhaps July 1/07- 5 am, a pre-take-off moment...
love,
lucy
