Blomidon Provincial Park
Blomidon, NS
June 1, 2012
Time to take a break from all those shots from across the pond and head over to the Annapolis Valley.
It was a gorgeous evening to watch the moon rise over the Minas Basin. Wolfville's lights can be seen in the distance. Heck, you can even see a few stars in the night sky. This shot was taken from the entrance to the provincial park (hence the light cast from the street lights in the foreground).
Blomidon is a fun park to visit, mostly car camping though like most provincial parks there are a small number of walk-in sites. The view of the Minas Basin from the park rarely disappoints. Many of the campsites have a view of the basin and have a nice breeze which helps keep the bugs at bay. That also means it can get pretty chilly, we were bundled up that weekend but enjoyed the break from the black flies.
If you have time, check out their network of walking trails. If you are lucky you will be able to spot Five Islands Provincial park and Parrsboro on the North shore of the basin.
