Charlottetown Harbor

We had lobster at the Lobster Wharf Restaurant on Charlottetown Harbor. This beautiful view of the harbor sparkled in front of our table.

End of the line - Prince Edward Island

The final province of Canada for this trip. I've updated our map. The final map from the old rig (Bessy) is shown for comparison. Most of the blank spaces will be filled when we return from the West in 2014.

Halifax Harbor

We didn't get down to the tourist center of Halifax, instead we went to the rail yards and the industrial port facilities. The bridge to Dartmouth sits above the Canadian Coast Guard station and is located next to one of two large container facilities in the harbor.

Peggy's Cove Nova Scotia

The quintessential coastline village and the site of the Swissair crash where all lost their lives. We visited on a dreary, foggy day but the magic of digital enhancement saved the photos. Huge rocks and an almost hidden cove make the town very endearing.

Champlain

At the water side the classic river view of the old town is dominated by the monument of Champlain and the Chateau Frontenac. The old fortifications appear tres formidable!

Vieux Quebec

Old Quebec City is surrounded by a stone fortification and is linked to the old 1600's era fort that overlooks the St Laurence Seaway. In colonial times a major battle was fought here on the Plains of Abraham adjacent to the fort. The British were victorious. The French locals still refer to it as the "conquest". Old town is abussle with shops of all kinds. Our cafe had a bilingual folk singer (to go with the bilingual menu).

Old grist mill in Coteau Du Lac

This old mill, now a conference center, is home to several avian fishers who just stand in the rapids waiting for dinner to be served. In the USA the restaurant would probably be in the mill not in the water.
