South Shore Nova Scotia

It was a cold foggy morning in Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia but we got a warm friendly greeting from Theodore the Tug Boat. Photo bomb Tom returned the greeting. We took a short walk through the wharf area and then checked out the brewery of Nova Scotia's premier beer, Alexander Keith.


We traveled further down the coast to Peggy's Cove, the most photographed lighthouse in Nova Scotia. This one's for you Peggy, my dear friend.




We drove past quaint fishing villages and then came upon King Neptune's Campground and were so captivated with the beauty we just had to stop. We met tiny little Kay, the owner of the property and campground since 1945. She set us up with a primo spot and gave us fresh baked cookies too. What a sweetheart!






 We marveled at the view in every direction. To add to our delight within walking distance was Ryer's, where we bought fresh lobster right from the local fisherman. They steamed up the 3 lbs of lobster and we savored very bite back at our campsite. Lobster, lovely view, sunshine and a nap...does life get any better?
