We didn't know what to expect. We decided the night before to visit Peggy's Cove. We got there and we were as giddy as children. Luckily I had worn my tennis shoes because I did some jumping, climbing, and just all over trekking. There were these huge round rocks that went forever and jetted out of the sea in front of a beautiful light house. Only on my way out did I here the legend of Peggy. A romantic one at that. She was on her way to Halifax to meet her fiance by ship from New Foundland (if i recall correctly) and the ship took on a lot of water off of the cove and she was rescued by the locals. She ended up staying and when the locals went to visit they said "Are you on your way to Peggy's Cove?" And that is how it got its name. The lighthouse is beautiful and even has a post office in the bottom of it. I reverted back to childhood when I was at Peggy's Cove.
