Broad Cove and Coastal Loop Road and Bay St. Lawrence

Today was windy and cold, in the 40's.  We decided to head back over North Mountain, the way we had come yesterday.  We weren't pulling the trailer, so we had a little more freedom on where to travel.  The views today were just as special.  We took a dirt road out to Beaulach Ban falls, the highest in the park.

Then we took the Coastal Loop road, which gave us wonderful views of the coast.  We stopped at the little lighthouse at Neils Harbour.  Not many spots to pull over to photograph the fishing boats and colorful buildings.

The colors today were stunning.  The color of the cliffs, stones and sea changed as clouds came and went.  White caps on the water and the wind was howling.

We took the road north to St. Margaret Village and Capstick, the latter is on Bay St. Lawrence.  These towns are supposed to show what Cape Breton looked like before it became a tourism destination.  The houses were clinging to sides of hills, very colorful, fishing boats in the harbor.
