Annapolis Royal Wharf, NS

Foggy & drizzly today but we drove to Annapolis Royal anyway. It's an old French settlement. 1600's…guess THAT'S old enough!

 We just drove among the streets looking at the beautiful old homes. Lots of gingerbread. Lots of color.
The population is under five hundred.

One  of the main reasons for going there was to visit the interpretation  center for the Tidal Wave Power plant.

 Joey & I are both interested in things like this. We read that Nova Scotia gets about 13% of its power from renewable sources and working on getting lots more.

Today when reading TripAdvisor blogs I learned about Cape d'Or which isn't too far out of our way to Amherst. It's going to be about 85 miles added to the shortest route to Amherst. 
Hey, we're actually on the last leg of our outward destinations & headed westward in a few days.

Weather would be the only thing that might keep us from going to Cape d'Or.  Some of the roads aren't paved out to the Cape & we will be towing the trailer.
