Almost at the ferry

Friday June 22. So ... our last day on the mainland. We will boarded the ferry to Newfoundland tonight.
It was a nice drive across Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island. We had lots of time since the ferry sails at 11:30 pm so we decided to take the scenic road along the coast instead of the 4 lane super highway through the middle. At Tatamagouche it was time for a break so we stopped for a stroll and visit to the craft brewery. Then off to Pictou for a fish and chip lunch by the wharf.

We arrived in North Sydney in plenty of time for the ferry so looked online for a nice restaurant for dinner. The Lobster Pound and Moore popped up and had good reviews. The outside of the building looked a little sketchy but inside it was small and nicely appointed. After we were seated the chef  (and possible owner) came out to welcome us. He was quite a character, talking to the guests and joking with the servers. I had to make him a balloon lobster.
The meal certainly lived up to the reviews. Stomachs satisfied we headed to the ferry.
