I just read over all your vacation posts (and listened to the CBC interview). Glad you were able to make it to Baddeck. I loved it there. I can’t wait to bring the kids there some day. Isn’t the east coast amazing!

I love Peggy’s Cove when we were there. But that was 15 years ago. We should go back.

I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.
