Holidays are very special when you get to travel to places that are new or familiar and loved. From early days this month I've been on the move, to celebrate marriages of family members.
The first one took place in Cape Breton Island. This particular rocky wild and beautiful part of Nova Scotia is remarkable. I've always loved it, visiting twice already, but long ago, s o it's much like visiting an old friend, but with new eyes.
This particular view looks over an ocean inlet - it was a moody day - sprinkling off and on as I drove north along the coastline towards the island.
Further along I approach a ferry which will take me across to the island which beckons - its rugged edges lost in misty soft rains.
Wayside spots created by highways and tourism departments allow cars to pull of and people to photograph particularly beautiful sites and vistas.
I'm excited by it all, savouring every time I can stop and drink it all in. There is so much more to see - to enjoy to ponder. My journey has begun with so much promise.

Thank you to all who have written about missing my blog - you are very kind. This story will continue - but I also may post most of the photographs in a special website... Suffice it to say this month has been filled with fabulous memories. More to share on this blog and if on another website - I'll let you know.
Nature and all inhabitants of this world are the subjects of this blog. Often it's about pets, but it's also about everything in the natural world. Hope you enjoy it.

A new driver
Yesterday a friend of mine decided she wanted to go with me to see the parrots when I picked up my pump and filter for the fish pond. We had a beautiful sunny day and were in the mood for a bit of a road trip.
When we came out of the pet shop we looked up to see three others who were in the mood for a road trip as well it seemed.
We laughed and laughed at the three musketeers who told us off in no uncertain terms for not taking their attempts to get the car going in the right direction seriously.
Some days our natural world just hands you a good chuckle when you least expect it.
The licence plate on this vehicle, by the way, said RDY 2GO - someone has a great sense of humour!
May your days be filled with laughter.
