T@balong with us: A wonderful treasure....Nova Scotia- .Kejimkujik National Park.

Kejimkujik (called Keji by the locals) National Park, located in the central western area of Nova Scotia, is 156 square miles. The park was recently threatened by a raging fire nearby so fire breaks were set up by the firefighters (see below) and there was an evacuation that has since been lifted.

Our campsite in Keji

This land was once inhabited by an arboriginal people, the Mi'kmaq ( sounds like "mick-mau" ) some 10,000 years ago. Today, there is a national monument erected @Keji along the lake in their honor and we were able to take a tour to see some of their several hundred or more year old petroglyphs. Visitors are not allowed to enter this area without a park guide. Funny story- the English speaking tour was full this weekend, so we were with a French speaking tour. What the heck-petroglyphs don't have words anyways!
