Wolfville, top of Annapolis Valley

Ventured past Windsor into the Annapolis Valley staying off the main highway.  Quickly we came upon winery signage and had already decided to check out this wine region. Boy, were we surprised with the wine. Both wineries the we attended had excellent wines. Was suggested to go into Wolfville as a cider company had set up shop. Excellent cider also. Between the bottles of wine and cider, our emptied box was full again. While tasting cider, clouds were starting to let of of their load...

Can't float this boat!

Minas Basin, water going down..

Organic winery with exquisite bubbly!

Nice presentation, great wine!

Decided to head back to camp with the clouds threatening. They didn't threaten for long! Within 10 minutes, a wall of water was in front of us and we had nowhere for shelter. People were pulling to the side of the road. We carried on at 60 kph with flashers going until an overpass, which we stopped under. Suited up and by this time the rain was backing off. Totally soaked, continued on with the rain gear holding in the moisture of our wet clothing. Soon enough the pavement was dry again, as we went through the storm cell So we unsuited on the side of the road and carried on. A half hour down the road, our clothing had been blown dry. By camp, rain was a distant memory. Can't wait to head further into the Annapolis Valley.
