Cheticamp Upon departing Prince Edward Island, we again crossed the Confederation Bridge into Nova Scotia where we stopped for a few more photos. It is a beautiful piece of concrete. They will be paying off this bridge for a while….at over $50 Canadian per vehicle maybe it won’t take that long. So, we took our fair share of pictures and then some more.

Sunset at the Skyline Trail
Quite an amazing shot...reflection of the sun in the water with an intense trail of light to the shore. Very impressive and gotta be 'Johnny on the spot' to catch that one!

What a great experience you're having: lots of lovely food to keep you going, magnificent landscapes and seascapes and some great pictures of this beautiful area. Wish we were there. Enjoy Newfoundland - now, that is something very different! Keep Smiling.

I need to go back and do the Cabot Trail again . Beautiful photos and I can see that you relished the food on offer. Somewhere there is a photo of me ( era 1970) standing by one of the flowerpot formations in the Bay of ...as you say amazing tides. Great to read about your trip. Thanks Lynne

Scenery and seafood
This trip proves that we don’t need to go far from home to experience amazing scenery, taste treats and a culture change. Canada is refreshing. These are the nicest people in the world. If it weren’t so cold I would think about moving there.

I loved your Nova Scotia blog! I was born in Nova Scotia but left as a small child (I grew up on the west coast) and I've never been back. It is a place we definitely plan on travelling to, and your blog made me want to visit even more. Lovely photos too!

The Famous Tides
Very cool to watch the tides. Do you have to go at a certain moon phase or are they always so dramatic?

The Famous Tides
They are always so dramatic. It is amazing to see and contemplate the amount of water moving in and out. It really is spectacular.

Wow, this was an inspirational read for me - Nova Scotia sounds amazing and right up my street! I love the sound of the "Mom and Pop Motel" in Cheticamp, and the town of Lunenberg sounds well worth a visit too! Oh my - 50 billion tonnes of water in and out, twice a day! No wonder you were mesmerised and stayed put in your motel in Grand Pre! I could sense this was a highlight for you when you posted the photos and videos on Facebook, and reading about it here just confirms this for me! I would very much like to visit Nova Scotia I think.

Alex, I believe you would love this area and the Cheticamp hotel was in a great location for hiking. The tides are unbelievalbe and it is hard to grasp it even after seeing it.
