Nova Scotia... the way the $cdn is, by then, you'll get enough change back from your $US, pound, Euro, whatever, to pay for the trip. And the government will subsidize it to the hilt if you put more emphasis on the traditional music aspect. I believe they spend a buck or two promoting and putting on Cape Breton's "Celtic Colours" festival. If it could be run near the same time, it would be quite a trip for many who have never visited "The Cape". Not to mention PEI, NF and, of course, NB - The Picture Province (my old man always used to say, "underdeveloped and overexposed"). Unfortunately, it's in the fall and that may not be good for toting school age children.
