LOCATION
Cape D'Or and the lighthouse located there stand on a tiny piece of land
in Nova Scotia. The first lighthouse at Cape D'Or, built in 1922,
eventually gave way to more advanced technology. Nevertheless, the
lighthouses were manually staffed until1989, when the present automated
system was installed. The buildings, converted to a tea room and
guesthouse, attract tourists from all over the world.
We visited this lovely lighthouse on the 16th day of our journey. Though
the buildings shown at right were, unfortunately, closed for the day,
our visit was marked by the poignant seascape and the deafening foghorn.
Indeed, it was a foggy day. |
