From the Annapolis Valley to Chester

So we're back at our inn after a really busy day.  Glenda's reading Hello! And I'm doing this.  We headed out along the Evangeline trail but stopped at the Prescott House for a tour.  It was owned by a gentleman farmer who introduced all kinds of apple varieties into Nova Scotia.  The woman who gave the tour was really knowledgable and was kind enough to open parts of the house for us that are ordinarily closed the the public.....here's a photo from outside

After the tour we continued on to Kempteville and then headed south over the centre of the province to Lunenberg. No Bluenose!!!!! Being completely refitted but we did stop for a gorgeous fish sandwich which was absolutely yummy.  Toured the town a bit and then continued on to Mahone Bay.  Another stop and then on to Chester. We're staying at the Mecklenberg Inn which is run by and innkeeper with a sense of humor if the audible snoring stuffed sheep on our beds is any indication. It was trivia night at the local so that's where we went for dinner. Oh yeah, on the way we stopped at a pioneer farm museum.  Learned what a stave an ox and a citron was.  As it happens Glenda had citron chutney with her fish cakes at dinner.  Never would have known what that stuff was if we hadn't stopped at the farm!! Here's the photos

Yes its me Dale......and this is where I take the time each night when I travel, to reflect.  Which is a modern way of saying I'm just trying to remember what I did from one day to the next.  Things can get muddled on holiday and a doumented blog can save on future fights...... especially when I can change the date in the database at will.
