(apparently in Nova Scotia you can never have too many cannons...especially the 9 inch 250lb shot rifle cannons that require 80lbs of black powder...something that everyone should have if you happen to have a patch of water to defend...)
It turns out that we aren't the only curious animals about...this particular humpback whale thought that we were so fascinating that they came over for a look-see...luckily they only eat krill and herring and other small fishy things...
