Finally on Nova Scotia!

Finally made it over to Nova Scotia! The day started perfect at the B&B. Homemade apple pancakes, and perfect coffee. Outside, was very foggy and wet from a storm that came through most of the night. Met other bikers at the B&B heading to the Cabot Trail. Looking back, the fog rolled out around noon in Saint John.


Got over to the ferry terminal around 10:30 for a 12:00 send off.


Bunch of other bikers heading over from NH, VT, ME, ans MA. None of us were good at strapping the bikes down so it was good we were all helping each other out, well, I needed help more then others!

I do have a video of coming off the ferry but difficult to load through the iPad. Verizon has no service so relying on WiFi at hotels, motels, B&B's, cabins, and chalets.

The ferry ride was good. Movies, food, and slot machines. Anything for entertainment!

The lovely Ruth was always entertaining!



As we made our way to Digby, the weather got better and better. By the time we hit Digby, the sun was shining and the temps warm!


 

Stopped by Yarmouth for a late lunch, early dinner at a local restaurant (Pegs Place). Our first tast of local beer! Alaxander Keith's !Not sure about the India connection, but I will find out.


Not a long day miles wise, which is ok, got over here and now mapping out the route to get us to Halifax, and Beddeck, Cabot Trail. Ended our day in Barrington Passage, not a tourist destination, but nice folks. Just a place to sleep, unwind and get ready for the next part of the adventure!
