Another beautiful sunny day.  But have I mentioned the cold?  The sun shines bright, but the freezing cold Atlantic water causes us to dress like skiers. No less than 3 or 4 layers including long underwear.  It was 58F in our cabin when we got up this morning.  Brrrrrr - happy August.  It was cold this morning, but check out the Atlantic sunrise below.  Very cool.
 
We are about 30 miles east of Halifax here in Jeddore Harbor.  We plan to arrive in Halifax tomorrow.  Our cell phone has finally come back to life - so it looks like this week's updates can be sent tonight.  Sorry for the delay but cell phone service in Nova Scotia is a bit sparse.
 
Below is a picture of East Jeddore as we passed by on our way to our current anchorage.  It's been 8 days since we last touched land and we are surviving just fine.  Which reminds me of when we arrived at the dock in Charlottetown, PEI and one of the fishermen that helped us dock asked where we had come from.  When I told him Lake Ontario, he asked if we had come all that way with just the two of us.  I said for the most part we had, and despite that, still liked each other.  Then I asked him what he thought of that.  He thought for a moment and said, "I think that's a bonus!".  Yup, definitely a bonus.
