Cape Breton - Day 2

Thankfully the Advil and water combination I took prior to bed Saturday night helped me rise fairly unscathed from the prior night's concert. Chris & I headed out in search of some breakfast, and ended up at the Yellow Cello Cafe right in Baddeck. It was charming, and the food was excellent! Bacon and eggs cooked to perfection, served with homemade toast. Mmmm! To Chris' delight, they also had wireless Internet access, so he was able to plug-in and check his email (since he was waiting on an email re: a photo tour on Tuesday. If it was canceled, we were going to possibly stay another night). While he worked away on his laptop, I took an opportunity to try out his new iPod Touch...and check Facebook. I have to admit, it is pretty cool.

Full bellies later, we then embarked upon our tour of the Cabot Trail. The landscape is absolutely breath-taking. The changing leaves of Fall made it that much more spectacular. We stopped at several look-off areas and took dozens and dozens of photos, and also stopped at the Mary Ann Falls. We would have liked to have had another day to explore other trails and waterfalls, but unfortunately, time didn't allow. We toured the winding roads of the trail until we ran out of light, and then headed back to Baddeck. We had supper at Wong's, a local family restaurant in Baddeck, and then back to our hotel room. We watched the Amazing Race, and then fell quickly to sleep, exhausted from a long day of touring.

Day 2 of our Cape Breton excursion = equally fabulous.
