Day 190 - 28th October 2018 - Heritage Village, Foxes and a Canvasback Duck

We've had a busy couple of days playing tourist. Friday Jenny was off so took us out to the Heritage Centre and Village. Lovely gift shop - I found moccasins which have been on my to get list. The village is a combination of houses/cabins/churches/businesses etc. which have been donated and moved from other places. Each building lets you experience a piece of Fort Mac's past. There is also a Shipyard, but that closed in September.  I didn't think of Fort Mac as being in the boat building business but you learn something new every day. From there we went downtown and checked out the Dunvegan Christmas Shop - decorated trees with a different theme on every one. Then a little more shopping and off home to get the chickens in the oven for supper. We had a birthday celebration for both Jenny & Justin. Saturday we headed back out to the Buffalo look off, but no sign of them and then the trail. Even though there are signs posted about wildlife, all we saw were lots of tracks etc of Moose, Deer and others, none crossed our path.  A break  back home then out for a late lunch at Chez Max. Now this is a fabulous little restaurant  featuring Jamaican Food - it was awesome. From there we did the Fox trail. This is a cool spot, there are a number of Foxes along the trail that artists were commissioned to paint. Similar to those big lobsters done in Barrington this year. Being Sunday most of the household will have a sleep in, then I'm sure we'll have another little adventure.
