We just spent nearly 3 weeks in the Maritimes, visiting both Nova Scotia and PEI. Ironically, in BC we are having the "best summer ever" with very few fires, mostly reasonable temperatures, no smoke, and somewhat regular rain. It's been delightful. Meanwhile, the rest of Canada has been hit with fire after fire and NS is no exception. One frustrating thing we discovered on our last day in the province was that the "woods were closed" and this basically meant not being able to walk on ANY trail anywhere. I walked in Pictou, NS on a lovely paved walkway along the seashore but it was officially closed. Fortunately, I was not "caught" because hefty fines had been issued for violations. The one stop that we made in NB, at Cape Jourimain had also closed its trails and that place is worth a visit. It's at the junction of the Confederation and the province of NB. A great place to get a good picture of the bridge! Too bad Google won't allow me access to my photos at the moment!
