Back to Annapolis Royal

We started out this morning for Port Royal to finish our tour and stopped by Bear River to see the town on stilts at high tide. Being back on the Bay of Fundy seems to make these comparisons part of the visit.
We spent the day strolling around Port Royal and visiting Fort Anne, the earliest military fortification in Canada and one with a history of confrontation between the French and English as they fought for control of North America.The Officer's Quarters have been turned into a museum of Port Royal's long 400 year history and was very interesting.
We returned to Digby early and have spent a relaxing evening at home after dinner at a great local restaurant, The Captain's Cabin.
