After all that history, we needed fortifying, so we headed to Baddeck Lobster Suppers for (what else?) lobster, snow crab legs, and halibut! What a meal. Apparently, lobster suppers are a big thing in this part of the world. Sometimes they occur in fancy restaurants, and sometimes they’re in the local community hall. This one was terrific, and it was followed by an evening of Celtic music at a nearby restaurant. Live Celtic music is also a big deal in this part of the world. Who settled Cape Breton (besides the French)? Scots, and they brought their music with them. So you can hear Celtic music all over Cape Breton on any night of the week.
Great photos! I was in Bristol England last year and heard a lot about Cabot who they think is way more important that Columbus!!!!
Yeah, I can believe that John Cabot gets more attention in the UK than some of the other explorers do. It was cool to see these places that we learned about in 5th grade when we studied all these explorers.
Beautiful! How great to hear so much Celtic music, which I love.
