We headed out of C.B. hoping the weather would clear up. It didn't rain today but was cloudy, not good for picture taking. We took some of the changing leaves and hope they turn out.
We wanted to go to Egypt Falls but the Dreamers and Doers (their travel book) didn't explain where it was. We asked several people and they all said it was a very wide and beautiful waterfall..but they'd never climbed down to it. The last guy we talked to said he had done it. He said it was long and very steep to come back up--but not to worry, they had ropes to help you up--after just a little bit of considering we decided it wasn't for us. so we keep on driving. We did find a nice trail back into the marsh to walk. This 2 mile trek was boring, flat and uneventful.
We are finding more and more that roads, lighthouses, trails are not marked. It's very frustrating to not be able to find them. We see many cars parked along the road and guess they're on a trail but don't know where the trail leads to.
Each house in N.S. that we see along the way has it's own designer garbage holder. Some even put flowers on them. It must be hard for the trash men to have to open up each one to get the garbage.
Most homes, even small ones have green lawns with flowers. Some have acres of green grass. Americans would hire someone to cut these huge yards usually high on hills.
We are finding if there is a New Harbour, there is also a North, East or West New Harbour too.
Ice Cream is big up here. There are ice cream shops but it's also sold in craft stores, etc.
We see many old wooden boats in yards, don't know if they are there during the off season or beginning used as decorations
We're staying in Antognish. Went across the street and treated ourselves to ribs.
