From my kids accomplishments, to my heretical perspective of the world

Ferry x 3

September 14th, 2015 · 3 Comments

We’ve been on 3 ferries in the past 48 hours, a Papa, a Mama, and a Baby ferry.

The Papa lasted about 7 hours, and brought us from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia. The Mama lasted a little over an hour and took us from Nova Scotia to Prince Edward Island. And the Baby just took us on a short cut across a strait on Nova Scotia, and lasted less than 5 minutes.

We’ve decided to include a piece of New Brunswick in our tour. The Bay of Fundy National Park is in New Brunswick and could be the best place to see the tides. It’s only a couple of hours out of our way anyway.

Canadian geese honking in the distance as I write this. Nova Scotia is about 10 degrees F warmer than Newfoundland. 77, rainy and cloudy today, supposed to clear tomorrow.

    I loved that area back when I was there in 1975. I imagine a lot has changed since then.

    I hope the weather improves so you can enjoy more scenery. It’s such a shame to have all the best views socked in with clouds and rain. At least you can enjoy the adventure and the lovely cooler weather, keeping in mind you are missing 100+° monsoon storms here.

    Dale, I didn’t know you had been here. I should have asked for advice!
