We just returned from a wonderful, albeit a bit rainy, trip to Maine and Nova Scotia. It's a very lovely place and I hope I can return someday with more time to spend there.
Our initial visit to Acadia National Park was a foggy, rainy one. But on our last day in Maine the sun was out so we opted to go there again. What a difference the sun makes! The views from atop Cadillac Mountain are some of the most spectacular I've ever seen. Go if you haven't been.
We worked our way up the coast to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The weather wasn't any better there. We headed to Cape Breton Island and found our first sunshine so decided to drive the Cabot Trail. Of course, the north side of the trail was foggy and drizzly so the views there weren't the best. Once down and on the south side of the trail the sun emerged again. Even the local Mainers and Canadians were complaining about the horrid weather. Both are wonderfully kind and considerate people towards tourists. A great place to visit.
I took lots of photos many of which I want to use in future quilts. The old barn peeking from behind trees on a highway in Nova Scotia was a photo op I couldn't pass up as you can see. The Maine coast is mostly rocky and gorgeous with sun on the rocks. The last is a view from atop Cadillac Mountain. Do you see the quilt ops that I see in these pictures?
