Sherbrooke Village

For no apperent reason were in Sherbrooke. We saw it on the chart, it had appeared to be a good safe anchorage and secondly there was a town for food and re stocking and there was a tourist attraction of a historic village. Nice trip up the river. When we woke in the morning it was quite early for a Sunday and we dinghies ashore and walked in towards town, to do so we had to walk through the historic village. Wow this is a fully functioning frontier town with residents in period costume. When we were there, there were no visitors, so it felt very wierd. I’m guessing the site is about 10 to 15 acres of restored shops and house. And everything works from the waterwheel saw mill to the chair makers and onto glass photographer, Potter and all the things made keep the place running. Totally amazing. Our little foray ashore turns into a full day visit without a dull moment. I thought Clovelly was the most authentic place but this is right there too.
We have missed the tide to leave and go on a trip up the river in the dinghy.Baca lagi
