Pictures and more

We have been busy moving from place to place and I have been taking a few pictures but have not had time to post any so there are a few here:

We could see this church from the campsite we stayed at in North Sydney ( Little Bras d'Or ).

From the ferry to Newfoundland this is a Cape Breton Lighthouse.

This was the view off the stern of the ferry. The trip was 7 hours and there were a number of photographers on the top deck hoping to get pictures of birds and other sea creatures along the way. I had been up since 3:00 am and went downstairs and slept for long awhile. Apparently I did not miss much.

After we got the trailer parked because I has slept on the ferry I was awake enough to drive down to Rose Blanche which has an historical granite lighthouse. On the trail out to the lighthouse there was an information plaque for a community that you could see in the distance. The community of Petites is only accessible by boat.

And here is the Rose Blanche Granite Lighthouse. I have a large number of images that I am happy with like the one below. I processed a number of HDR images that worked out really well.

One of the differences we have noticed with the campsites since we left "western Canada" (that is Ontario and west) is the campsites have something extra. One had soccer fields, volleyball courts, shuffleboard and a pitch and putt golf course (and more including 2 swimming pools). Everything was free to use including the clubs and balls.

In New Brunswick the campsite had a waterpark with a good size pool and waterslide.

In Nova Scotia and here in Newfoundland we can hear music well into the night. In Nova Scotia it was a jam session in the campsite hall with a number of people from the campground. Last night they had a sing-a-long one of the buildings. Tonight over the wind we can hear singing and someone playing the spoons and earlier it was the accordion.
