Yarmouth NS

Ewww...what a dreary day.  Rained all day off and on while we drove down.  A non-eventful drive.  Touched the coastline a few times, but mostly the TransCanada road ....pretty dull.  We did spy a beautiful lighthouse along the way.

Got to Camper's Haven (?) CG about 12:30 p.m. and the bottom fell out of the skies just as we got inside.  But had to get out and see what we could see.  Drove down to see a lighthouse and drove through a little fishing village.  Raining all the time.





 Dashed into WM for a few items, but discovered they had NO produce at all.  It was a really dinky little store.  We found a SuperStore and they had it all...will be using them from now on.   It's just rained all day so we came back to RV.  It's foggy, so we can't see anything.  We did make a stop downtown at the Visitor's Info Center and got a plan for tomorrow...supposed to be sunny.

There appears to be LOTS to do around here....lots of brochures, booklets, etc., but we can't seem to find it.  We are taking the shore road tomorrow up towards Church Point (hind sight:  should have stayed there at the CG--we'll be backtracking a lot) and visit some Acadian culture sites.  That's the  history I want to see.  Tomorrow night, we'll stop at the Around the Bend restaurant for some local food and hear the local musicians as they play.  They do this at restaurants here and there around the area....it's just finding them, the schedules, and driving to them....It's not exactly what I imagined.

We had pork roast (cooked in crock pot last night); fresh field tomatoes from the farmer's market; broccoli/carrot/celery for dinner.  There is no tv at all tonight, so we're catching up on the PC (we do have wifi) and watching a movie.
