First stop, Pomquet

After our first few days in Halifax, Jeremi and I parted ways. He headed to New Brunswick to catch up with old high school friends at their 10 year reunion, and Calin, Susanne and I headed to Cape Breton. On the way we stopped and stayed in Pomquet, where Marie's from, on Saturday night. As usual, Marie's parents were wonderful hosts, and the weather was just beautiful. On the Saturday afternoon when we arrived, there was still enough time to get in a quick swim on Pomquet beach, where both the water and the sun was pleasantly warm.

After playing in the water for a while:
That night we had a wonderful meal of mussels, lasagna, and salad, and a few nice glasses of wine.

The next morning during breakfast Marie's grandmother and uncle stopped by, which was a nice chance to say hello.

And a picture before leaving:
Then we were back on the road, for a day of impossibly nice weather in Cape Breton.
