Greg...great time of yr to discover the Maritimes...Fall is in full bloom...lovely reds, yellows, and golds on all the trees...bring your long underwear though..might be a touch chilly in the nights. I think Rollo Bay, PEI will still be having their weekly Ceilidhs every Thursday evening into Oct...might end in the early fall though. I also think you'll be in the Region in time for Celtic Colours in Cape Breton...some great music guarantee!...enjoy your trip!..enjoy the Keith's Beer and in NS pick up a bottle of Glen Breton..the only single malt distilled in Canada!....Slainte!
