On to Nova Scotia

This si what we did on July 25th....

Last night, we attended a professional stage show of Anne of Green Gables. This theater production played to a sold out audience in the Charlottetown Confederation Theater. The show was very well done. We had a really good time. This is Canada’s longest running live show—about 15 years.

We woke early this morning to clear, blue skies! Finally, after several days of rain, it was a welcome change. Unfortunately we were leaving Prince Edward Island. It was a beautiful drive through the little towns and around the tiny harbors. Once again we crossed the nine mile long Confederation Bridge—our toll was $54.00!!

Our destination today was the village of Noel—on the Shubenacadie River where it flows into the Bay of Fundy. We are parked at Burncoat Point—a place where the Guinness Book of World Records states the world’s highest tide of 58.5 ft was recorded.

The village of Noel hosts motorhome caravans such as ours several times each summer. Since we are dry camping -we are the 3rd from the left-(no power, water, etc) the ladies in the town cooked us a delicious pot luck dinner this evening. Then one of the village officials told us about the town, the tides and some of their history. Everyone is so friendly.

After dinner we walked down to the river since it was low tide. Once again we were able to walk on the ocean floor. It is really amazing. Parked on the riverbanks, we watched the sun set over the water—such a lovely sight.








Tomorrow we are rafting the river during the bore tide. It’s supposed to be a wet and wild time.
