Ohio to Nova Scotia






We are now in Baddeck, Nova Scotia and rode the Cape Breton Cabot Trail yesterday. We are taking a break now, Joe to attend a Rotary meeting and me to put on some new tires on the Scooter. Easy trip so far. Lots of friends and relatives. Joe and I really enjoyed Bob and Janis's place in Western Nova Scotia. Big old house with 5 or more bedrooms and six of us staying there.

The weather has been great except for today where it is overcast with some rain drizzles. Since leaving Arizona 18 days ago, I have camped 5 times, stayed in a hotel 4 times and the balance has been with friends and kinfolk. The factory tours, sea faring stuff and catching up with friends have been the best. There are a lot of bikers on the road, doing the same as Joe and I. Yesterday we met up with a Brit on a 250 Honda Rebel that he bought in Santiago, Chile a year and a half ago. He is a tall guy, 70 or so and just pokes along on his 50,000 mile epic. We're looking forward to Newfoundland tomorrow after a 14 hour overnight ferry boat ride.
