Grand Pre - Acadian Village

We drove west out of Halifax to the Wolfville area to tour an Acadian area. We watched a film that explained the politics leading up to the expulsion of the Acadians, even though they insisted that they were neutral in the ongoing battle between the French and English for control of Canada. We don't really learn too much about the plight of the Acadians on the west coast. 

Cayley and her cousin, Charlotte dressed in period costume. 

Of course Longfellow's poem Evageline was featured.
