Good-Bye P.E.I., Hello Nova Scotia

It is with mixed feelings that I leave today. I have had such fun in P.E.I. that I don’t want to leave the ‘red rock’ but on the other hand I’m excited to see Nova Scotia.

I have to say a few words here about where I’m staying, apparently, I haven’t done this yet. I haven’t stayed in a B&B in Canada before, so I was a little leery. However, those fears were for not. The place I stayed was great. The hosts Shannon and her husband were very nice and welcoming. It was Stella who stole the show. Stella is their little dog who runs to greet you with the little tale waging. The bed was very comfortable and I slept very well. Breakfast was there each morning and so was the laughter and good cheer. Sharing the upstairs living space wasn’t so bad. I never really had to wait for the bathroom or was not disturbed by the other guests. Maybe I’ll try this again. If you want to check this place out, I’ll include the link. (https://abnb.me/rKrHYje0Ssb) They also have cottages to rent if you don’t want to stay in the main house. However, Stella is worth staying in the main house, sorry Shannon!

I am leaving for Nova Scotia on a ferry today. Shannon suggested that I book in advance and she was correct! I had no issues at all with boarding. The ferry is nice inside and has a canteen where you can get something to eat. I sit down for the 75-minute crossing and chat with my friend from home and write this entry. I have never done a ferry with a car on my own yet, so this is another first! Yeah me! The boarding and departure run smoothly, good thing the crew know what they are doing, and in no time at all I’m in Nova Scotia.

I stop by the Tourism place to get some information on this province and then I’m on my way. I stop to get some groceries and then head to my place. This place is a whole little house. It is quite cute. It is a little older and the floors slant a bit but nothing that is a problem. The one thing I gotta say though is: First impressions count people, cut the grass. It is the first thing you see when you pull in and a little outside maintenance goes a long way to making the place look inviting. That said the inside is nice and I have a jetted bathtub. I am so going to have to get a bottle of wine for this place! Well, time for me to unload and get settled. Talk to you all later.Läs mer
