131.0. "Scotia Prince to Nova Scotia" by NECVAX::ARLINGTON (Charlie) Wed Jun 07 1989 17:12

    Has anyone taken the Scotia Prince to Nova Scotia?
    
    I am interested in what the trip is like, prices, accommodations,
    spending money needed, places to go once in Nova Scotia?
    
    Thanks

	My wife and I took the Scotia Prince, with another couple a few years ago. I don't remember the prices, but I do remember that the car was included with each couple's fare. Although we only had one car we both paid the same fare. The ship was small but nice. The cabins were very small and did not have toilet facilities. (There was a small sink) There were men's and womens shower and toilet facilities at several locations. We had a weekend package which included two nights at different "Wandylan" Inns. The location was up to us. We stayed in Kentville and Bridgewater. From Yarmouth we took the Evangeline Trail to Kentville. As I recall we stopped at Digby, Port Royal, Ft. Anne and Grande Pre. From Kentville we went to Bridgewater, stopping in Halifax, Peggy's Cove, and Lunenburg. The trip from Bridgewater was quick because we had to be in Yarmouth early for the return ferry. Nova Scotia is beautiful!! If you would like more I can look up our trip info at home. Give me a call at DTN 337 4102. Jim
