Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia





Everybody and every guidebook says you gotta see Peggy's Cove, the home of the most photographed lighthouse in Canada.  So we did.  It's cute and quaint and picturesque but in our view, neither unique nor worth all the wows.  Maybe we looked at it with Oregon coast-jaundiced eyes.  Still, we're not sorry we went.  As you can see in the pix it was quite foggy when we got there at about 9 AM.  The pix above were all taken there.

  1. It is my understanding that Prince William and his new wife are suppose to be in the area. Heard mention of Prince Edward Island as one of their trips. They are supposed to head to the states on July 5th. I suppose that they are taking the day off and celebrating the 4th of July today!

  2. I think you got great pictures for your trouble. Love the red boat one. In our opinion, the granite rocks are the real star of Peggy's Cove. It was foggy when we were there, too, but it lent a beachy feel to the photos.
