OK I'm a little late but here are some great pics from our trip to Canada.

This is in NOVA SCOTIA on the way to Peggy's cove. Peggy's cove is as famous as Disneyland up there. Let me just say in all my travels near and far from the US and beyond. This is the most amazing place ever!
In the first pic that is someones house and there dock (That is the At. ocean You need to look up a map to see how the little fingers on the island really work) It is so clean and fresh When you get out of you car there all you do is smile. Ya that is a nice back yard



Peggy's cove is the name of a Lobster bay POPULATION ABOUT 70. Its has a huge Light House, which is the only real working post office in the area. Really when you go inside there is a little counter and a mail lady sitting there to send of your post card which they are happy to sell to you $$. The little boat you see are just boats for the resident's that live there. There is a few LITTLE restaunts there with Minimal seating. But as will all of Nova Scotia they had plenty of lobster and Digby scollop's Yummy oh and Mussels Abby even tryed them all.!!



The Light House. The Light House sits on a HUGE formation of rocks well like a boulder. You can walk all over it Eat on it, the kids run on it.. It is so breathtaking.


We really had the bast time their The food was so Yummy. McDonald's and Subway have lobster sandwiches. The is a big Greek influence there as well The history of that is to long to Blog but there are great Greek restaurant's there. They have this Gravy they pour over fries and top with cheese it like there national dish "pountain" maybe I'm not sure. Anyway the people there are so kid friendly. When you walk into the stores and shops and other places they just go crazy over the kids At fist I was like "oh it must be nice to kids week" lol, but Garth co workers there said that is just how the people are there very into children. If you eat and embrace the culture which we did for the week they call you a NEW MARIN TIMER that is a huge complement for a tourist to be labeled. It just means you "get it" I would move up therein a minute if we could, but you know the trade acts put a damper on that. A U.S. company that has an office up there can only hire Locals to work. Garth even had to have a Local "sponsor" because he was there a month
Anyway this is getting long. If you ever get a chance to go RUN RUN RUN you will love it .

Abby's friends are taking a family trip this summer and I am so jealous They will have a great time
