Cabot Trail Day 2

The choices before us! Should it be whale watching or hiking or museum touring? The weather really dictates it all as Cape Bretoners already know. The mountain tops and roads were shrouded in mist or fog or clouds so no hiking on the high trails. The harbour at Pleasant Bay was not foggy however a wind suddenly whipped up offshore and even the seasoned lobster fishermen were not venturing out so no whale watching today. No fog in the lower areas so we enjoyed exploring aspects of the Acadian (french) region near Cheticamp. Fabulous meat pie from the Aucoin bakery and a hike past the remnants of the homes of the last 5 Acadian families to live near Grande Falaise before being relocated in 1936 as the Cape Breton Highlands National Park was formed. Lobster for dinner again of course.
