It is their first visit to Nova Scotia and they like it. They flew to Portland, then drove through Maine to St. John and took the ferry to Digby. After two nights in Halifax they came to visit us in Liverpool at Western Head, where we look out at the bold Atlantic Ocean. Seeing Nova Scotia with a new set of eyes is always interesting. They like the people and their courtesy and they like the lack of crowds and heavy traffic. And they love the coast. Both Susan and Peter are well travelled individuals but this is their first trip to the Maritime provinces. I wonder why?
Tomorrow we will all go to lunch at the Quarterdeck, which is right on a beautiful beach. Peter has read about the beaches but has not yet seen one. Tomorrow he will. Unfortunately, tomorrow they will drive up to Cape Breton Island, then drive around the long loop the next day. Before they head home to Chevy Chase they will see PEI. Tomorrow morning after breakfast I will show Peter the map of Nova Scotia and I will tell him what to do the next time they visit Nova Scotia. It is best to see the place slowly. Much of the area comes from the charm of the people and the places and the speed of the action or lack of action. I am delighted to have Susan and Peter visit us at our home in Nova Scotia. I just wish they could stay and learn more about the place, and enjoy it's charm.
