Sept 2012 Nova Scotia and New Brunswick Part 2 of 3


In Lunenburg, we spent a day at the Fisheries Museum, but missed seeing the Bluenose II. Needing a break from museums, we went to Kejimkujik Seaside NP. We did a great coastal hike here, saw lots of seals and managed to get completely soaked by a downpour before we got back to the RV. We moved inland to Kejimkujik Park and spent 5 days hiking, biking and canoeing. Then we headed back east along the Fundy coast. Unfortunately, the three times we stopped at a National Historical Sites, they were closed on the day we arrived. Apparently recent budget cutbacks caused them to reduce their hours. We did find the Nova Scotia Provincial Museum open; the best of these was Sherbrooke Village, where costumed interpreters provided tours of each of the buildings.

Too much time on the beach for Bigfoot


We met Eldon and Lois at their place near Isaac’s Harbor. They had a spot for our RV (water, electric and sewer) just like being at a KOA except for the lack of screaming kids. The first day was fine, but a storm moved in. Eldon was anxious to start working on his shed and dock, but the weather delayed his start. Unfortunately we had to move on, but Eldon got lots of help from his neighbor, Art, and others. The dock got completed and a good portion of his shed.
