Today is Indepen-
dence Day for Canada. We passed several community celebrations on our drive from Digby to Lunenburg. Lunenburg is not having fireworks tonight, though nearby Bridgewater will have a display. Before arriving in Lunenburg we stopped at Kejimkujik National Park and fed mosquitoes while we hiked near one of the many lakes. Lunenburg is home port to the Bluenose II, a sailing vessel. She sails tomorrow for Maine, then to Boston for Sail Boston 2009 (www.sailboston.com/confirmed_ships.html). She sails at 4 pm tomorrow; we hope to return from our sightseeing in time to see her sail. This evening we were able to board her, walk about the deck and talk with some of the crew. After supper we went on a harbor tour that turned into a little more of an adventure than intended.
