After breakfast at the hotel we were on the road to explore the Cabot Trail. Cape Breton Island is the northeastern section of Nova Scotia and a large portion of the island is part of Cape Breton Highlands National Park of Canada. The Cabot Trail encircles the park and much of the route is along the coast.
Along the way to the trail, we noticed a pull-off along the road that looked like a good spot for a photo. We parked, got out of the car, and used the guardrail to brace the camera. We got the photo below and also found a cache at the same spot - "Hey...Is That a Bridge Down There?" (GCM450).

A short distance later we saw a sign for the "Englishtown Ferry". Turning off the main road we found it; a cable ferry that crosses St. Anns Bay.
From the ferry, we joined the Cabot Trail and saw spectacular sights such as mountain landscapes;
Seacoasts;
And fishing villages. 
Photos do not do justice to this area. After a long day of touring, we headed back to the hotel, stopping for a dinner of local seafood on the way back.
Tomorrow, we are off to Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.
Touring today - 255 Miles
Cumulative mileage - 4255.22 miles
