Nova Scotia Ferry

We woke up early to get a shower at the rec center before hopping in line to board the ferry.

Our boat, the “Blue Puttees” had arrived a couple hours earlier. The vessel is named after a legendary army unit from Newfoundland that fought with distinction in World War I. They were so named for their distinctive blue leggings.

We made lattes in the van and were soon on our way. I think it’s safe to say that this is the largest and longest ferry either of us has been on. Fortunately, the sky is clear and the winds calm so the crossing should be trouble free.
