Sugar Moon Farm and Pictou Area

We got up this morning and drove to Sugar Moon Farm for brunch.  This place has won some awards in Nova Scotia but it is way out in the boonies.  Here are Karla and Rich reading about Sugar Moon Farm.

Here we are at the table.  Karla and I had Maple Irish Coffee.  Yum!!  We both bought some Maple butter to take home.  If it can be made with Maple they had it.  It was a unique experience.

We went over an opening to the ocean and all of these cormorants were sitting on the old bridge posts.

In the afternoon we drove into Pictou.

This is a very old fishing town.  It is also where the first Scots came over to settle in Nova Scotia.  It is a very pretty town with parks with gazebos,
