Today is a holiday in Nova Scotia known as Truth a Today is a holiday in Nova Scotia known as Truth and Reconciliation day. The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a day for Canadians to collectively commemorate and acknowledge the painful history and continued detrimental impacts of residential schools on Indigenous peoples in what is now known as Canada. The creation of this holiday is one of the 94 calls to action by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and recognizes the thousands of children who were taken from their homes to attend residential schools, many of whom never returned. Today I’m sharing a few pieces of Mi’kmaq art that touch on that subject. I was lucky to have seen them and met some of the artists this summer at the @chesterartcentre Mi’kmaq Arts & Culture Days. 1. “Prayers for our lost Children” by artist @loretta_gould 2. Birch and Quill art by @gloadecrystal 3. “Heart of an Eagle” by artist @lornejulien 4.

Did I just find one of my new TOP favourite lobste Did I just find one of my new TOP favourite lobster rolls?!?!? I think I did!! This is the lobster roll from @thesaltbanker the newest restaurant on Cape Sable Island in Barrington, Nova Scotia. This heaping lobster roll had easily 3-4oz of lobster meat on top of a grilled hotdog bun with mayo, green onion and celery. It was so fresh and so delicious! The kind of lobster roll that makes me say wow as I eat it. Yes it was a little messy but totally worth it. Be sure to check them out asap! #lobsterroll #lobster #visitnovascotia #rediscovernovascotia #novascotia #visitbarrington #capesableisland #saltbanker #shineontourism #calamari #lobsterdip #domoreinnovascotia #novascotialobster #novascotialobstercrawl
Welcome to @nalu.retreat a brand new property in P Welcome to @nalu.retreat a brand new property in Porter’s Lake, Nova Scotia just a 35min drive from downtown Halifax. Everything at Nalu is like a spa experience and coming soon they will have their own Nordic spa! Each dome has a hot tub and outdoor shower, beautiful bath products and scents. You can also have a massage therapist come right to your dome for a treatment. On site there are currently 3 geodesic domes that currently fit 2 adults each 18+, no pets. There is wifi, but no TVs just a gorgeous view overlooking Porters Lake. There is currently a two night minimum and they are the priciest domes in the province so far, but they are gorgeous. If you are looking for a relaxing and perhaps romantic getaway I highly recommend you check them out. ❤️ Thanks to Nalu for having me as their first guest! #hosted #geodesicdome #dome #porterslake #dartmouth #dartmouthnovascotia #novascotia #visitnovascotia #rediscovernovascotia #novascotiaaccommodations #novascotiaairbnb #glampingdome #glamping #glampingresort #naluretreat #novascotiaglamping #shineontourism #halifaxblogger #innsofnovascotia #innsofns #tmactravel #explorecanada
It’s almost harvest season!! 🍂 As fall appro It’s almost harvest season!! 🍂 As fall approaches and it begins to be harvest season the number one place to visit in Nova Scotia is the Annapolis Valley. There are farm fields for days, corn mazes, pumpkins galore, farm stands full of produce and apple u-picks everywhere. But did you know there is also an apple orchard hidden in South Western Nova Scotia in the municipality of Clare on the Acadian shores? @corberrieciderco is a family run apple orchard and cider company. They grow over 20 kinds of apples and they also have 3 peach trees that are absolutely delicious! You can message them to come by for a tasting and tour or stop by and see them at a local market like the Farmers Market in Belliveau Cove on Baie Sainte-Marie. Also yes their ciders are DELICIOUS! They have 3 kinds right now and the strawberry rhubarb is my fave! Yum! 🍓 Also I hear their fresh apple cider tastes amazing with a bit of @boatskegdistilling salted caramel vodka. Yum!! Be sure to check them out the next time you head to the area! ❤️🍎 #baiesaintemarie #visityasta #yarmouthandacadianshores #acadianfood #acadian #acadien #peach #peaches #applepicking #upick #visitnovascotia #novascotia #rediscover #tmac #tmactravel #yarmouth #clarenovascotia #corberriecidercompany #ciderlovers
