Left St. Peter's early and travelled to Louisbourg after a quick stop at Tim Horton's for coffee.
Louisbourg was sooooo interesting. Learned the difference between a fort and a fortress, this being the latter since it had civilians living within its limits. Took a tour and learned a lot about both the life of the inhabitants and soldiers. Very dismal for the soldiers!!!!!!
Lots of salt cod that was shipped back to Roman Catholic France for sale when one couldn't eat meat.
After the tour, we travelled towards Sydney, and the Cabot Trail where we are staying for the next two nights. Due to play golf tomorrow. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate.
