02/07: Ed's Best Day of the Vacation
Category: General
Posted by: The Agnew Family
When we decided to travel east this summer, Ed got all excited because the first geocache placed in Canada was placed near Chester NS. Finding this cache was a "must" for Ed and today we were finally in the area and he was able to find it.
Happy boy, he found the cache.
Today's destination is Halifax with stops in Mahone Bay, Chester and Peggy's Cove. We were lucky the rain held off till we got to Peggy's Cove.
Mahone Bay has a busy harbour with lots of boats anchored off shore so lots of dinghies at the dock.
I'm intrigued by these little houses on the water. Not sure if they were houses or cottages or just fishing shacks.
Mahone Bay is famous for the great photo of the 3 churches. The location in the guide books doesn't appear to work anymore as a tree blocks the farthest, oldest and smallest of the 3 churches. We finally found a spot where we could see all three churches.
Someone must have been bad!
The lighthouse at Peggy's Cove is a popular thing to photograph. Today, I think it was the people around the lighthouse that were the story. If you look closely you'll see a young man hugging the lighthouse.
The rocks at Peggy's Cove are almost as famous as the lighthouse itself.
Today it's all about the story. I think this photo and the next one tell a story as well.

An interesting view near the information centre.
