The weather was gorgeous as we boarded the ferry from Port Aux Basque to North Sydney, NS. We spoke with several other bikers as we waited to ride the bikes on the ferry and strap them down. A couple of Harley riders from Ottawa and a fellow GS rider from Quebec. This was a 6 hour ferry ride and we had reserved seats in a very comfortable deck with front row seats to the windows at the rear of the ship. Very comfortable seating and the sun coming in the windows put us to sleep pretty quickly.
It was an uneventful cruise and the seas were fairly calm. However, I can get seasick in a bathtub so I took some recommended medicine to help fight seasickness and I did fine.
After disembarking we had a short ride to our motel in Baddeck, NS. The motel is called St. Ann's and is right on the shores of a bay with a beautiful view. We also had the best meal so far on our trip at the Cedar House Restaurant and Bakery. Sooz ordered a piece of strawberry rhubarb pie with our meal that was excellent. I left with a half dozen peanut butter chocolate chip cookies.
I haven't had much luck uploading pictures but will try again.
Tomorrow we are off to Prince Edward Island.
