Secret Bays and Coves of Nova Scotia

From Halifax to Chester, we donned our Daniel Boone racoon hats and explored the hidden asphalt and gravel drives that would suddenly appear, no wider than a car width, intersecting Highway 333. Some perhaps only a couple of kilometers long, others up to 15 kilometers, revealing shaded cottages and large mansions….all with docks, canoes, kayaks, power and sail boats and sometimes a cemetery or two.  The weather takes it toll on the buildings and landscape, resulting in texture and worn patinas on the cedar siding.  Almost every home has a beautiful front garden or pathway filled with flowers and plants of all colors, sizes, shapes and descriptions.
