Cheticamp

Spent the night in Cheticamp. Went looking for some live Celtic, Cape Breton type music. Found instead a scratch country band who sang all kinds of songs from the Beatles to John Denver and more - not quite what we had in mind. We were a day early as we were told there's a really good gig on Saturday night. Also a couple of weeks early as there will be lots happening in a few weeks when summer starts.

We lunched at the Celtic Music Interpretive Centre in Judique where a young fiddle player and a lady playing piano entertained us. Went on to Antigonish and stopped for the night in a 'cabin' in a van park. It was actually a big mobile home with 2 queen bedrooms, a full kitchen, big living room and bathroom. I think I could live here (Barry couldn't - no shed). Unfortunately, we couldn't find any more music (there will be some tomorrow we were told) so just went for a drink and a chat at a little pub around the corner.
