Cape Breton Capers

I arrived at Cape Breton Highlands National Park just as the sun was going down, so after a bit of scouting around town and an awesome crab dinner I settled in to my car for a good nights sleep. The next day I drove the shoreline and caught some great shots of the swells coming in. It was quite windy and it was whipping the water in to a frenzy. Later that morning I drove out to Cheticamp Island, through a pasture, while being aware of a bull (or so the sign told me to be), to see the light house. Ours are way better in Tobermory.

After that I caught up with Julia Thomas, an old co-worker, and her new 2 week old baby. After getting the scoop on the best places to go hiking I was off, though the weather was a little wet and foggy. Sometime driving along you could not tell what was on the other side of the ditch. After the fog lifted I found out it was usually a huge drop. While hiking that day I caught a glimpse of a moose and her young, as well as a bald eagle. To end the day I visited a Buddhist monastery (hey why not). That night I slept in one of the pick nick shelters.
