This morning as we explored the impressive Fortress of Louisbourg, we were guided by costumed interpreters who talked to us about their lives at the fort in the mid-1700s. We then traveled through scenic countryside to the town of Baddeck, on the shore of Bras d’Or Lake. We visited the Alexander Graham Bell Museum, one of Canada’s premier National Historic Sights, and we saw some of his amazing inventions relating to sound and aviation. Lastly, we went for a lovely sail on a local boat, and were entertained by a colorful captain.
