The seagulls are calling and the sun is rising as I look out over the water from our Spectacular campsite at Point of View RV park in Louisbourg Nova Scotia. We didn't stay here on our last visit but found they had a special on for $89/night. That included your full service camp site, Lobster dinner for two - with all the fresh crab you could eat - , and breakfast the next morning. WOW !!! Guess where we are staying for the next 2 days. There are 3-4 nice RV parks at Louisbourg so would recommend a visit.At dinner last night we met a 95 year old man , Mr.Cote who was the mastermind and planner of the reconstruction of Louisbourg. He was delightful and a great story teller who worked for PM John Diefenbaker as a high ranking member of his staff. He was visiting the fort with his daughter and are both from Ottawa. Great evening and must have ate 3 pounds crab !!! Lobster was just the appetizer. Picture of evening From Left to Right. Larry Johnson, Gail, Ellen Johnson, Linda ( Owner of resort), Mr. Cote, and Ron. Larry and Ellen are from California and became good friends and travelling companions in their Monaco Motor home.
Yes we left Newfoundland yesterday in a horrible thunder and lighting storm with lots of rain. The good news was the ferry left on time at 9AM for a smooth 6 hour crossing to North Sydney. It was about a 1/2 hr drive to Louisbourg and Happy Hour started on time at 4 PM. We were sad to leave Newfoundland as our 5 week stay will likely be the highlight of our trip. Tomorrow we will move to Halifax where we will park the RV for 3 weeks. Our friends Bruce and Judy Williamson from Campbell River arrive Monday for a two week maritime tour. We will do B&B's with them and use our Halifax location as a home Base. The last week in September we will leave Canada for Bar Harbour Maine an
d viewing the fall colours. We have to meet up with Brad and Sheri Whitman the 3rd week in October in the Atlanta region and be in Florida - November 1. Even though our trip is a year we never seem to have enough time. Gail & I are well and appreciate all the e-mails you send us. Our home for the next two weeks will be Woodhaven RV park in Halifax.
