Halifax to Cape BretonThe rains from the previous day's ride had left, but there was still plenty of moisture in the air that morning. Bruce had his own plans, so after packing up the steeds we waved our goodbye along the streets of Halifax.Shira and I circled the famed British Fort called the Citadel sitting like a silent watchman atop the giant natural hill a water's edge, and then crossed Halifax Bay and picked up the coast road east called the Marine Drive which we rode for the entire day.Far faster and with many more elevation changes, twists, turns and spectacular views this road was a delight.In Port Dufferin we spotted a small seaside inn and restaurant called the Marquis of Dufferin (See GAADR). The lobster roll was great, but the chowder was beyond anything we had ever had - chunks of haddock, oysters, salmon and mussels all in a wonderfully spicy cream soup.While at the Dufferin I found a local photographer's work that truly caught my eye. It is rare that I am so moved by new work, as there are so many incredible camera folk out there these days, but this woman, Connie Publicover, with her images of water drops was stunning and I ended up carefully packing a small print of hers away in my saddlebag. Please take, the time to see her work at:www.betterphoto.com/gallery/free/gallery.asp?mem=212772.Finding artists like this is one o the reasons to ride to Nova Scotia. - - read more
