Heading Home

Some random photos of our time in Nova Scotia



If you managed to read down to the end of the last posting you will remember we had just arrived in Nova Scotia. We stayed in Annapolis with Jane and Faith, who was as bright as ever with her wry humour intact.  Then on to see Bob and Nancy and Zach in Margaretville with lots of catching up to do, walks along the beach with Olive and even a guitar jam session that was probably more fun for Bob and Peter than for anyone listening in. Then off to Halifax for a quick visit with Sharon, Craig and Nicky with Sharon just having sold her house and looking for somewhere to move to.

The next day may of our readers expecations were fulfilled when Peter and Margot went their separate ways, but only for the day - for Peter to sea kayak in Tangier and Margot to tour the Art Galleries of Halifax.

Back together by the evening we headed for Truro probably passing Nancy, Zach and Meggan en route as they headed home from the hospital with the new baby girl, as yet un-named, in tow. Once we realised we had missed them we carried on to Amherst and booked in at a Super 8 motel.

Saturday was a long drive down through New Brunswick and Maine to Freeport with occasional outbreaks of torrential rain and Jeff Foxworthy - www.jefffoxworthy.com/countdown  - on the car radio. 

Today after a couple of hours at LL Beans we headed into New Hampshire where we are staying with friends from 20 years ago who now run a school here.

Tommorrow back to Boston and the plane home. Give us some time and we will wind up the blog with some deep thoughts on what this massive experience has all been about and what we intend to do for the rest of our lives. Be warned - but don't hold your breath.
