Woke up in the morning to weather reports that tropical storm Ernesto was expected to hit the east coast of Nova Scotia as a hurricane by Saturday. Our plan had been to go through the Canso canal to the east coast, heading for Halifax by Saturday.  We decided to head back west toward PEI to get as much distance between us and the storm before the weekend. 
We had 10-15kts NE and choppy seas as we crossed St. George’s Bay and all the way to Pictou Island. It was a rock n roll day until we got on the south shore of the island. The winds dropped overnight. The small wharf was very calm. Bought some wine from the local winery and met Wendy who runs the store at Wooden Tents.
