Cape Breton is as beautiful as everyone said it would be. Sweeping vistas,




lighthouses,


wildlife,

new shoes.

Rain here too. But the days we hiked and paddled were hot and sunny.

This is in Margaree Harbor, on the west side and just as you start to travel up the Cabot Trail. Wish you could smell the wild roses that covered this banking just ahead of my kayak. And we found a nesting area of gulls. I've lived off the coast of Maine all my life and I've never seen baby gulls this small. Who would have thought those noisy, raucous things could be so downy cute.

They're cute, but not as cute as your new shoes. Oh yeah, and the scenery is gorgeous, too. :)
