Friday 16th September

I woke up this morning and looked out to the worst weather we have experienced on our trip...it looks like it is cold, wet and windy (a bit like Scotland)
The good news was that the weather cleared during the day.

We started the day with a tour of Grand Pre landing.
nestled between the South mountain and the Bay of Fundy lies the fertile Annapolis Valley.  The Acadians spread thoughout the valley from 1605, building dykes to claim the tital lands along the Annapolis and Cornwallis rivers. This continued until the british ordered expulsion of Acadians in 1755 which is memorialized at Grand Pre.


Lunch at the Evangeline Motor Inn where the RC of Mud Creek meets

PM Winery tour of vineyard and wine tasting at Muir Murray.



Evening: pot luck dinner at Joe and Susan Ueffings.  Photo of some of the Rotarians and partners who attended a wonderful evening of fellowship.
