Peace and quiet

All is calm here on this little island just of the shore of Baddeck in NovaScotia. If only it was so in the rest of the world. The red windowed cabin is where many of us would like to stay a while. Nice full screen. Enjoy this last day of the year.

Kidston Lighthouse

Taken from the shoreline of Baddeck, Nova Scotia, Canada. The Kidston Island Lighthouse is a lighthouse on Kidston Island, within the Bras d’Or lakes. The original lighthouse was built in 1875 but this present lighthouse was built in 1912 and the two stood side by side for some time. Made of wood, this looks quite different from any lighthouse I have seen over here in the UK. Try full screen. Enjoy this last week of 2023 in peace and joy. Herb

A glimpse of Nova Scotia

Baddeck, situated in the centre of Cape Breton, Canada, may only be a small village but it sports this super little lighthouse and also the Alexandra Graham Bell museum. I was captivated by this lonely view. This was to be the furthest north we cruised as we docked in nearby Sydney and then a 2000 mile return cruise to Cape Canaveral, Florida. I don't really like cutting pictures in two with the horizon but the cloud scape here was so dramatic that I decided to leave it in. Please forgive me. Enjoy full screen on this festive weekend.
