Day 3 - Antigonish, Nova Scotia


Another gorgeous morning. Inspired to go for a walk/jog around the campgrounds while waiting for Bill to wake up. Still no one at the office, no one anywhere. Visited with the ducks who were obviously comfortable with campers and looking for a handout.

We finally managed to rouse the proprietor, Mel, with the help of his dog and his neighbour. That may have been a mistake as he then wanted to visit. Quite amazed with our trailer and generally just wanted company. We finally paid our bill and were on our way.

The truckers’ protest continued today. There was a suggestion that supplies in the Maritimes could be impacted so we stopped in Moncton for food, batteries, etc. While there we found at wi-fi connection at a Staples parking lot and downloaded mail, including a movie clip of our new grand-niece Sofie.

Camped at Hyclass Campground near Antigonish NS. with a westerly orientation for a beautiful sunset. Spotted an Aliner, and they spotted us too, so exchanged tales and advice.
