For Thanksgiving weekend, I had the opportunity to travel to southern Nova Scotia for the long weekend. The fall colours were bright, vibrant, and the maple leaves glistened in the sunlight. For early October, the weather has been warmer than pervious years and I’m welcoming the warmth and sunlight on my skin. I’ll prolong fall’s typical cold and frost covered mornings for as long as I can. As much as I love the fall colours, I know what the beautiful red, yellow, and orange leaves mean—that winter is coming. As you know by now, I’m a summer baby all the way. A sun worshiper as they’re called (just like my mommy). Hence why I chased the sun last year and skipped the Canadian winter and headed to Australia in January. Now I am back to experiencing the beauty of the changing seasons. I witnessed eastern Canada’s summer turn to fall, and soon fall will turn to winter.
Until then, I will embrace the beauty that surrounds me and hope that winter is also abnormally warmer than usual as this fall has been. One can only wish.
Any advice for how you cope with cold weather?

Twice. It was glorious. Will visit again.
Awesome! Where did you visit?
Banff National Park and the area around Waterton. I want to visit Acadia and Nova Scotia as well soon
Oh yeah, Banff is incredible! I’m from Nova Scotia~!
I need to get there.
You would love it. I’ll be writing more about NS next week!
Gorgeous! I love fall!
Thanks so much. I do love the fall too, but I know what it means…that winter is coming. Clearly, I am not a winter baby. 😦 Summer all the way. BUT, I DO love the fall colours.
Lovely scenery – great pictures!
Thanks so much. Do you love the fall?
Greetings from sunny Florida! I Love Nova Scotia. I have been there twice in the month of September. Absolutely beautiful. My favorite (along the Coast town) Lunenburg. Hope to return again soon to that area. Cheryl. Psssst. I do not do well at all in cold weather. I was raised in Florida and remain here!!!
Hello sunny Florida. I’d love to be there right about now. Lunenburg is a nice coastal village, although there are many in NS. NS will have you whenever you are able to make it back. I do not do well with the cold either and I was born and raised in Atlantic Canada. I don’t know how I will cope this winter! Last winter I skipped it and went to Australia.
Ah an escape back to Australia would be great!!! Be safe and warm! Cheryl
Thanks for the warm greeting!
