A day off

August 3, 2007
Upper Sackville, NS

After two solid days of touring, we were ready for a day off. Geri especially, since her sciatic is worse than ever. She stayed home and tended to that while I ran a few errands. I dropped off another roll of film at Wal-Mart and then used the hour wait for processing to find a local wine store (not the provincial one, but rather one that focuses on value), pick up a few things at the grocery, and make an ATM stop. Once I got home, I spent an hour putting stuff away in anticipation of tomorrow's departure for the other end of the province. With the temperature in the low 80s and the humidity at least that high, it was a pretty steamy exercise but at least it won't need to be done tomorrow morning.

Tonight, we've accepted the invitation of the couple next door to go to a local fish and chips place. We've spoken with them a few times after meeting them first at the Harding's Point campground last week.

Tomorrow, we head for Cape Breton Island, which should be about a 5-hour drive.
