Land of potatoes and red clay. Great stuff Vic.

Stomping Tom Connors - "Bud the Spud", sorry sorry sorry. Great shots Vic. You've probably seen more of my country than I have.

It's a bit of a known fact Geo that you never get to know your own city until you have visitors to show around. It's usually the same with your country.

If I recall, there was a golf fairway right behind Green Gables. Still there?

Totally true! I have never been to the Statue of Liberty even though I live in a suburb of NYC or even the World Trade Center which I could see from Jones Beach near my house!

Thanks for sharing!

Thank very much gentlemen for looking in and for the kind words.

Starting off, were still at Green Gables, this time inside the house. I have to admit, the wall paper mesmerised me.

From there we moved on to Nova Scotia and the town of Pictou for lunch. This is the home of the replica sailing ship 'Hector' that brought Scottish settlers to Nova Scotia in 1773. It was open for viewing at a price but as you can see, the rigging and masts had been completely stripped down as the vessel was undergoing refurbishment. So I just contented myself with a couple of pics
