Bouctouche

Spent the morning (4 hours) at the Acadian Historic Village. A very impressive display, made better as there were fewer than 20 people walking around the village (strecthed over 1.5 to 2 km's). Talked to the park people dressed in period costume. The village was laid out like a village from the early 1800's and the buildings covered the period 1780 to 1880 (after the deportation of acadians by the british). While at the village we had an acadian meal at Dugas House. From Caraguet we drove down to Bouctouche. Found a great B&B right on the beach, with a very friendly owner. He offered us 2 nights at $55 per night. We had the whole house to ourselves fro both nights. After dinner (had acadian food again) we walked the board walk at the Irving Eco centre (the walk is above a long, large sand spit called "La Dune de Bouctouche), after 1 1/2 km's the mossies etc got the better of us and we retreated.
