Lisa, Enid, and I vacationed in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick from 2005-08-03 to
2005-08-18. We visited with my sister Nancy and her family and with Lisa's and Enid's
brother Peter and his family.
For the first part, we stayed mostly at Indian Point where we celebrated Nancy's 60th
birthday, ate, kayaked, wind surfed, fished, snorkelled, ate mussels, snoozed, read books,
wandered the woods, ate, made day trips to visit Peggy's Cove, hike in Keji adjunct, visit
Pearl Island where Atlantic puffins nest (a first for me!!!), watched the shrew that
lives in the back deck at Indian Point, and, oh, ate some more.

For the second part, we met with Peter, Edna, and Edana. Peter joined us on the Cape Chignecto trail hike. It was an
incredible experience.

There are two sets of pictures from the hike: mine, and Nancy and Avery's. We both agreed
that the above image was one to capture. I haven't captioned or sorted Nancy and Avery's
photographs. I thought it better to get them up than sit on them another week or two or three

For the third part, we visited with Peter, Edna, and Edana in Sackville. In Sackville, we
were met by a lovely dinner of skewered shrimps and desserts that Lisa can eat! After
camping for a few nights, fresh veggies and shrimps were especially appreciated. The eating
theme continued with stops at restaurants, bakeries, lobster shops, ... Edna knows
the best ones.
Also, we
visited the Cape Jourimain Nature Centre, Bouctouche sand dunes, sandpiper resting
beaches, Cape Enrage, Fundy National Park, and many
small towns where Edna seemed to know all the interesting shops and restaurants (again).
