We survived the last ferry ride (barely) and we’ve been exploring the south coast of Nova Scotia and the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick for the last week- beautiful scenery and amazing tide changes!
It was the easiest ferry ride for Rose – easy on and off the ferry and she had plenty of “personal space”on the 15 hour trip. It was quiet down in the bottom of the ferry so Rose got some much needed rest. The rest of us were not so lucky. It was a really long night for Molly and us. Molly had “roommates” in the kennel that barked and howled all night. Every time we went to check on her, the little dog in the crate next to her was barking. So Molly didn’t get much sleep and was exhausted the next day as we drove to the south coast of Nova Scotia. Gary and I had a “roommate” sitting in the seat in front of us that snored all night. We were wishing we could put our roommate in the kennel and put Molly in his seat but he weighed 300+ pounds and there wasn’t a crate big enough for him!
We have been on the road for over 2 months now and it is just starting to get warmer – we’re spoiled by the nice cool temperatures we have had this summer but the warmer weather will help us get ready for warmer temperatures in the southeast! We've really loved exploring in the Canadian maritime provinces - beautiful scenery and friendly people!

Next – and last stop before we head back to the south is the coast of Maine. Fingers crossed that Rose continues to behave herself and we have an uneventful trip back to the south - we are really excited to see our family again -especially our little grand daughter Emmy ( she's grown a head full of curls since we left)
