If you are partial to islands... you can't do any better
than this!

Yes you can. Someplace warm comes to mind.

Yep, agreed. Airfare to Nova Scotia isn't cheap, HST is a tax
gouge,
booze is insane priced, cold as hell this time of year.

Costa Rica is cheaper, warmer and more things to do.

"Cold as hell this time of year"??
When was the last time you were here? 70F today.

Weather is too unpredictable up there in the tundra. 70 today
could be
30 tomorrow.- Hide quoted text -

No country for girliemen... that's for sure!

Or Girly girls. The only people who have swim trunks or bikinis
in NS
also fly to the Caribbean or central America.

Man.. you'd better travel a bit more in your own country... whichever
one it is.
The other day the weather service was claiming that the west coast of
Cape Breton had the highest temperature in all of Canada for that
day..
On the north shore of Nova Scotia they claim that the water is the
warmest north of the Carolinas. (Northumberland Strait rather than
open Atlantic Ocean)

So for one or two days a year it makes NS a tourist destination? Petty
much like northern coastal Scotland, rocky, damp and cool.

I'm a lot farther south than you, Canuckles.

True, but at least I get a few more weeks of summer. And being dry, the
cold doesn't seem to penetrate as much.

You do realize that Nova Scotia has the warmest average temperatures
of any province in Canada?


It don't matter. You couldn't drag me there with a team of horses.


You could drag me ther for a week in peek summer if I had a billion in
the bank and about 500 destinations in the world that I have visited first.
