Digby Gut Fog Station

The Digby Gut Fog Station is listed as a “lighthouse” on the lighthouse friends website and since I live right in Digby I thought I could try and show it to ya’ll. It’s hard to see across the water, and without a high zoom lens on my camera it was difficult to get a good shot of it.

The best way to see this would be from the Princess of Acadia, or even one of the Whale Watching groups that goes out the gut.
Here it is, and along with a few shots of the Princess. I spent lots of time on this ferry in my childhood, never went outside on deck, (let’s just say when I was a kid I did NOT have my sea legs!) but I would very much enjoy traveling on her again and taking some pictures out on the waters.

I happened to be out at the Prim Point Lighthouse in Digby and got this shot of her heading out on her way to Saint John, NB.

Have Fun sight seeing and Happy Travels!

Victoria Beach Lighthouse

A quick entry today, was in Annapolis Royal and decided to take a trip through Victoria Beach just for the heck of it and of course to go see the Victoria Beach lighthouse and cross that one off my list.

It's a simple lighthouse kinda neat with a green light. The drive to this lighthouse is a long one and the further you go along the road the more narrow it gets, so if you ever paln a visit keep that in mind and use caution. The hill going down to the wharf is also quite narrow and VERY steep, but it's a great place to go and take some nice pictures. Above is of the wharf and boats at low tide and below is a view accross the water of the Digby Ferry terminal.
Over all it was a nice day for a drive and of course nice to take some new pictures and see another lighthouse.

Happy Travels
