Friday we had a lovely trip to the north coast of Nova Scotia and made it to the Evangeline Trail (all our previous jaunts have been along the Lighthouse Route). We drove up to Middleton, and then headed west. We stopped in Annapolis Royal to stretch our legs and get a bite to eat. I took this photo to show you the height of the tides along this coast. Notice the tires at the edge of the pier? That gives you some perspective to see how much the tide goes up and down.
Annapolis Royal is filled with historic buildings. Two of the oldest wooden buildings in Canada can be found here (one a private residence and one a museum). Beautiful flowers and flower boxes are everywhere.
We had a lovely lunch at a restaurant called Compose. (I found out later the building and restaurant are currently for sale for a very reasonable price if anyone is interested!)
We ate on the deck (shown above) with this beautiful view:
John had a lobster club, and a had "the Mozart"...an open faced sandwich with sliced chicken breast, peaches, curry sauce and melted cheese and side salad with orange dressing (divine!)
After lunch, a walk along the boardwalk
took us to Fort Anne and then along to Digby. (photos available soon)
