Then we drove down the LaHave River and on to Lunenburg; which was crazy busy due to the Folk Fest happening that weekend. Neither of us being fond of anything associated with acoustic guitars we ate a picnic lunch overlooking the harbour and moved on to Mahone Bay where a liquid afternoon spend in the Crown and Anchor prepared us for nice supper at the Cheesecake Cafe.
Sunday we went to Chester hoping to meet a millionaire who wanted to sweep us off our feet. Alas it was not to be, but we did ogle some nice houses and sailboats before driving to Bayswater Beach, where the sand was too hot for sitting and the water too cold for swimming. I got a sunburn on my feet because who can ever remember to put sunscreen there?
Cleveland Beach was another stop, where the water was warmer. Lastly, of course Peggy's Cove was a must before ending in Halifax for her to start the last leg of the trip with another friend.
Just to prove it, here are the pics. (Lori)
Hanging baskets are so declasse. Lunenburg decorates their light poles with seafood instead.
Mahone Bay's Three Churches. If you want a better shot, buy a postcard. That iconic picture doesn't exist unless you go tromping through someone's backyard.
And Peggy's Cove as it should be. No Tourists. No Car Park.

Very good. See, now I believe you. And I kinda love the fish hanging from the light pole. Wuffle should do something like that. Just think how much they could argue about what symbol to choose. And you thought the whole euonymus (shudder) debate was bad.
Wuffle should use their mascot Muddy, who either looks like a Hersey's Kiss or Mr Hanky depending on your generation.
I will suggest it tomorrow.
