Before we left the east coast we had to see some more moose and sure enough on one our hikes in Cape Breton we spotted a mother and her calf. I think that made the total moose sightings on our trip 14. For sure Newfoundland is the place to travel if you want to see moose up close and personal.
Finding a boon docking site is sometimes quite challenging. We had quite the drive around the Bay of Fundy area looking for a spot by the water. What we learned was that all the farmer's land goes out to the water and there are few parks or public areas that reach the sea. Never daunted by a challenge eLVie never gave up and found us a real hideaway complete with Bay of Fundy fog and bog.
It was a little chilly showering outside; however it was very private!?!?
The Bay of Fundy has the largest tides in the world. This is a small inlet where the local fishermen bring their boats. It is hard to imagine it filled with seawater but with tides of close to 50 feet this little harbour would look quite different.
From Nova Scotia the trip home was quite the blur as we were driving long days in order to be home for my oncology appointment in London. We enjoyed the hospitality of several Camp Walmarts and made it to London in time for a lovely dinner with Bob and Jan and a night in the McGuffin Suite. It was a long way to travel for the time that we had; however we were glad that we had chosen to do our Newfoundland trip despite the time constraints and distance. We hope to return to The Rock again someday.
