last day in cape breton

IMG_2724So today Sunday, we decided to revisit our favourite part of the Cabot trail and also to visit Englishtown where a small car ferry usually operates from but major work is being carried out this summer and so is not in use.
At high tide the lovely old sailing ship left Sydney harbour in the mist. We watched it sail away from our hotel bedroom window. It looked so regal as it moved away down the coast in the morning mist.IMG_2714adj
First stop was to photo a marshy area on the way to the green bridge on the causeway to cape Breton. The mosques were biting but I used my deet spray!

We went down to Englishtown where there is a car ferry, well having renovations at the moment!IMG_2759IMG_2761

We returned to the cabot trail and went through part of the National park again. here we stopped by a rocky shoreline and sat in the sunshine.IMG_2768IMG_2771IMG_2789IMG_2792IMG_2820

After a couple more viewing points and stopping by Ingonish for an icecream we turned round for home and stooped at our favourite bakery/café “the cackling chicken” for our evening meali had pan fried haddock and grandad had a turkey dinner

So tomorrow we head out on a 4 hour or so journey to Halifax Nova Scotia.

Really love and miss you all mum and dad xxx
