Tuesday 9/22
We spent last night in the Evangeline Beach Campground. It is named after the fictional character upon which Longfellow based his poem Evangeline. The poem tells of the deportation of the Acadians from Nova Scotia. We visited the Grand Pre National Historic Site which is dedicated to archiving the history of the deportation.The grounds we beautiful.
We finally stopped at a vineyard!! I think this might be the best vineyard tour I have ever taken. We were “forced” to taste a least 6 wines, while walking through the vineyard. Tough day.
We are reaching the end of our days in Canada. We plan on crossing the border tomorrow mid-day. Canada has been fun, friendly, educational, and above all beautiful!
