Halifax

Left Cheticamp with regrets until we hit the next little town, Inverness. Golf course on the ocean dunes and empty beaches. Uncle Brian and other serious golfers would love it here. Then on the Ceilidh Trail the home of Celtic music down the southwest coast of Cape Breton. What fabulous roads these are! Took the #7 from Antigonish to Sherbrooke then followed the Eastern shore to Halifax. This trip took forever because around every turn was another photo op. dead tired by the time we pulled into Halifax. Today we took the Spyder in to get a rear tire and with any luck it will be done tomorrow. Toured the wharf, Pier 21 (Canada's immigration story), and Peggy's Cove. Perfectly clear sunny day and that is truly the weather needed to see this national treasure. Hear from so many people that fog obscured their view. Photos do not capture the ethereal essence of this place.
