Staying with the Turniawans

At Cribbon’s point we were greeted by Epa (Marian’s sister) who courageously picked me and Carlos up. I say courageous, because I am sure we smelled pretty bad. She brought us up to her place, offering us a warm shower. Great gift (probably for her as much as for us)! A bed on land is also a treat! But even when I close my eyes, I feel as though I’m back on the boat and I feel like I’m swaying.

The area here is beautiful (I’ll post some pictures soon). As Carlos described, this is truly an area to own a sail boat. The vast St. George bay is splendid. Cape Breton on one side and the rest of Nova Scotia on the other.

The Turniawan’s home is full of art everywhere. There’s always something interesting to look at. Nancy (Marian’s mom) seems to always be up to interesting art projects at home and in town.

Eating fresh foods, meeting new people and having great conversations, swimming in the salt water...It’s been a nice break to stay with the family here.
