Lunenberg – July 16

Neither Marsha nor Wells were diligent in keeping the screen door closed the first night at the goat farm and we suffered for it. As the sun went down and the wind dropped the mosquitos decided our camper was a great refuge to rest then grab bites to drink all night. No matter how many times we were up with a fly swatter it was fruitless in ridding our sleeping quarters of the pests. It was not a great sleeping night. In the morning we hop into one of our trucks and the four of us take off for Lunenberg. Lunenberg is a world heritage site representing a port laid out by the British in the mid seventeen hundreds. It was a noted ship building hub. A replica of the Bluenose is docked there. The original ship symbolizes the importance of Nova Scotia’s ship building skills. It even was at the Chicago World Fair way back when. The town is built around the harbor or maybe I should say harbour since we are in Canada. It’s a major tourist center with restaurants, art galleries, and other shops. We enjoyed or half day in and about the town then back to the goat farm. Tonight we were much better about keep the screen door shut and slept well.
