After a couple of days we travelled up the Trans Canadian Highway to Antigonish where we had booked a house by the sea for a week. It came complete with a 17 foot yacht, its own beach, canoes and kayaks. The house was called Dar ix XemX and was absolutely fantastic. Our journey there was like something out of a film. We turned off a main road along a side road....drove for miles......and miles...turned on to yet another side road.......and finally came across the house sat there looking gorgeous. We went up to the front door (which was open)....classical music was playing from somewhere inside the house and there was a gigantic axe wedged into a log next to the front door. Hitchcock would have been proud of this scene !!!!!
Professor Chris Galea owned the house and he had left us a note (and some wine) to welcome us.
We could see bald eagles swooping overhead and the scenery was just stunning.
Rob, Claire, Sophie and Ross joined us at this point and had fallen in love with Canada and Nova Scotia and announced that they wanted to live here too !!!!!!!!!!!
