We spent two nights at Fundy National Park on the way to Cape Breton. The site had a great view of the water, and the park wasn't very busy. There's quite a bit for the under-3 set to enjoy there - a large playground, a heated salt-water pool, and some beautiful short trails for hiking. Dickson Falls (below) is on a 1 km loop with lots of boardwalks and stairs that the girls enjoyed.
The drive from Fundy to Cape Breton is a long haul, but we all survived and enjoyed the last hour especially as we drove over Cape Smokey at dusk. The campground at Ingonish was much busier, but we had a nice spot close to the trail to the beach and the playground.
Moriah organized all the footwear outside the tent!

A gorgeous short hike is near Black Cove beach. The trail takes you up over a small hill with a great view to the rocky headland north of the beach. We didn't do the whole trail along the headland, but had a scenic snack then came back closer to the water. The geology here is fantastic, to boot.
I think it was quite a treat all four of us to spend time together. Below, Doug and Bridget at Corney Brook (west side of Cape Breton).
