Trip to Nova Scotia, New Brunswick & PEI - Day 12

Traveling south through Maine and Massachusetts brought us to Newport, Rhode Island. Our sailing cruise this afternoon provided sweeping vistas of Newport’s “Gilded Age” mansions, a 19th century military fort, and beautiful old lighthouses. Shopping, sight-seeing and dining occupied the remainder of our day. We are overnighting in Newport, RI.
 





Trip to Nova Scotia, New Brunswick & PEI - Day 11

Yesterday was mostly a travel day. Before heading back into the states, we stopped off in Moncton, New Brunswick to visit the strange Magnetic Hill, where we appeared to defy gravity. Travel days are when we "make miles" while watching movies, listening to music, reading and knitting. We overnighted in Bangor, Maine in a nice Marriott Inn.
