Books

I purchased Frommer’s Nova Scotia, New Brunswick & Prince Edward Island by Paul Karr since it was the best available at my local book store.

I researched on the internet and ordered Adventure Guide to Canada’s Atlantic Provinces: Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Labrador, Iles de la Madeleine by Barbara Rogers.

I spent the weekend reading the Frommer’s book. This book is a little over 300 pages. The first section is a “Best of” list for active vacations, observing nature, scenic drives, hikes, family activities, history, picturesque villages, inns, bed & breakfasts, and local dining. The chapter on Nova Scotia is extensive, with smaller chapters on the other provinces.

I highlighted what interested me and then entered all the highlighted information into a worksheet by province. The goal is to get an organized list of places by area so I can consult the list as we go through the trip to see what’s coming up in the area we’re headed to.
