We left Cape Breton this morning and headed toward Halifax. On the way, we ended up in a huge traffic stoppage. It was one of those deals where they have a flag person letting so many people through and then poof, up comes their little flag and you get stopped. After being stopped twice, we ended up getting stopped one more time when we were next in line. I offered the cute young man who stopped us a cup of coffee and we ended up making buddies with him and another flag dude. We were stopped for at least 15 minutes so we managed to find out quite a bit about them and the area. Unfortunately, neither of them were very well travelled in their own country so what we found out was pretty much just about their hometown. Oh well, they were nice guys and very appreciative of our mobile hospitality. If they ever leave their area, they will look us up in Ohio. Ha.
We are staying at a KOA just outside of Halifax. It is really beautiful but it looks a lot more like camping-camping than an RV park. It has trees, a river, and all that stuff. Once we get in our home on wheels, it doesn't matter what is outside though...walmart signs, gas pumps, or pretty trees and rivers.
We saw some folks here at the park who have 2 Irish Setters that are just beautiful. We stopped and visited with them for a minute and they are just as crazy as all of them are. I think Glenn was feeling bad that Lucky isn't with us this trip.
We found out that Monday is Thanksgiving Day here. I had no idea that they had a Thanksgiving or that it would be a different day. Now I'm hoping that someone will invite us to their place for Thanksgiving. Isn't it sad that we are going to be alone on Thanksgiving??? I'm going to try real hard to make some friends before Monday.
