Another short day - up the freeway from Antigonish, across the Canso Causeway to Port Hawkesbury. We had a bit of drizzle today, but no real rain. We took the freeway and had a nice ride. The road had nice, wide shoulders - the best we've seen in Nova Scotia.
Only one photo today - of the Canso Causeway. The Canso Strait is 200 feet deep here, so filling it in to create the Causeway was not a small job.
Port Hawkebury is an industrial town, dating from the 1890's. It reminded me a bit of Powell River, in that it is a working town and not too touristy. It is the gateway to Cape Breton and the Cabot Trail (where we hope to venture towards tomorrow).
