Tatamagouche to Cheticamp, Cape Breton Highlands


Cape Breton Island is a mix of several cultures.  As we started north toward Cheticamp in the National Park, we were on the Ceilidh Trail.  Signs were in English and Celtic.  As we went further north, the Acadian influence appeared and signs were now in English and French.  We were now on the Cabot Trail, which circles the Park. At the welcome center, we were greeted first, bon jour then hello.  We were only one of a couple of people camping in the campground.  It was a nice spot with full hook-ups and a nice shower and restroom.  We thought we would be in the beginning of the tourist season, but actually, we were several weeks early.  Lots of Europeans traveling and camping, but still lots of room in the campground.

Listened to CBC radio with a story of the first Canadian to win the international shin kicking competition.  You got to love it!
