Hammonds Plains to Bridgewater. 141 of 2812 km. Today we were back on our bikes, leaving Hammonds Plains after a quick breakfast. There was a surprise in store because just past Lucasville Road, there was a loud bang; when I looked back my rear tire had blown. After changing the tire and tube, I called Blair and took him up on his offer of a tire that he had taken off his bicycle. Only now I had it delivered. With the spare tire in a pannier, we got moving again. After Tantallon we got onto Hy 3 and rode along the seashore; there was only one problem. We couldn't see the sea for the fog. Eventually the fog burned off and we had fantastic views along the water. After lunch we rode on Hy 103 because Hy 3 didn't offer us ocean views. As the day warmed up, we decided to stay in Bridgewater rather than pushing on. We got a great rate at the Best Western. After Susie had a nap, we biked to Lunenburg to see the Blue Nose II. This added about 40 km tothe day's ride and explains our numbers above. They allowed us on the ship so we got a close up look at the wood, ropes and sails. It was a really in opportunity and we took a lot of pictures. After returning from Lunenburg, we went for a swim in the motel pool and I used the water slide. It was 2 stories tall and did a loop in complete darkness; then it fired me out as if I were shot from a cannon. Good fun.
