Today is another day and another town! Truro is only 58 km east of New Glasgow, but it was our destination. We visited The Little White Schoolhouse Museum, built in 1869.

The last class to attend this school was a grade six class in 1969.

The basement, too, is filled with archives. Many old textbooks, yearbooks, pictures.....
 |
| We witnessed another Tidal Bore this afternoon. |
 |
| It was much smaller than the last one we saw in Moncton, NB. And much quieter. We didn't even hear the wave before we saw it. |
We visited Victoria Park 'the Pride of Truro'
This 1,000 acre natural woodland park is located in the centre of town. It's a beautiful park with pathways and waterfalls and we enjoyed the walk as well as the cooler temperature on this hot day!
 |
| this pool area is known as "Witches Cauldron" |
 |
| "Wishing Well" We climbed it. |
 |
| Jacob's Ladder 175 steps (we didn't climb it) |
 |
| Waddell Waterfall |
This evening we found our way to Riverfront Park, the scene of a free concert. Julie Johnstone on the fiddle accompanied by "Jim" on the guitar, they entertained us for an hour with tunes and some 'down home Nova Scotian fiddling'
