Today is my last day in Souris and I will spend my day hanging around the beach, the waterfront and the boardwalk.
The skies are blue and clear once again – the temperature a very balmy 30 degrees celcius.

After breakfast, I headed to our local grocer and picked up some fruit, yogurt, sandwiches and snacks to take back with me to Truro, tomorrow.
I headed to the beach for a quick swim and returned to the motel to change out of my swimsuit.
It was a 5 minute drive to the boardwalk and as i strolled along the waterfront, I came upon an ice cream shop. The perfect treat for my last day here! Almond, toffee vanilla in a waffle cone 2 scoops! I had to devour this treat quickly before I would end up wearing it. HOT, HOT, HOT…
After devouring this decadent cool cool treat, I now had to wash all the stickiness off my hands. In search of a restroom, I found one next to a local gift shop…..well now, I’ve never seen a nicer washroom – it defied all our preconceived notions of a public facility. With that being said, of course I had to take some pics to show my dad…
A work of art – look how nice!!!
As I enjoyed the boardwalk running along the beach/waterfront, I found some info boards about Souris, their Lighthouses and the Railway.
I completed my afternoon stroll and made my way back to the motel. Time to pack, tidy up, have some dinner and a glass of wine. An easy meal of sandwiches, caesar salad and dessert, polished off with a glass of locally made red wine while I enjoyed the stillness and tranquility of the outdoors and my surroundings.
Tomorrow, I drive back to Wood Islands for the return ferry trip to Caribou, NS.
Thank you for reading and for letting me share.
