Wolfville

Terrific breakfast at our B&B - Eggs Florentine, Toast, Canadian Bacon, Potatoes, Fresh Fruit, Juice, Tea and Coffee.

A day spent enjoying high and low tides.

Then we set off for our 8 - 10 mile Cape Split hike.  Took us an hour to drive to the trail head.  We stopped at Scots Bay to get pictures at high tide.  This is a good spot to see the vertical distance between hi and low tide - these pictures were taken about 10:30 (high tide)






These were taken on our way back through around 4:30 (low tide)


High

Low



Back to our Cape Split Hike.  We arrived at the mid point between high and low tides. You can see the water swirling with the tide flowing out of Minas Bay.






Having a bad hair day (hat hair).  Cape Split, Minas Basin on the right and the Bay of Fundy to the left.  




Low tide on our way back to Wolfville- we walked out on the mud flats


Good view of the horizontal tide





Small harbor on the way back to Wolfville


Tomorrow we're off to Truro.  We will stop at Grand Pre, a World Heritage Site, on our way out of Wolfville.
