I’ve always been fascinated with transportation. While my wife views the actual travel process as a means to an end (namely, getting to a destination), I love the journey itself. I could sit in an airport and plane watch for hours, and it’s a key reason why I opted to take an overnight train to Washington, D.C.<\/a>, with my daughter a couple of years ago.<\/p>\n

On a recent trip to Canada, it led us to one of the most unique properties we’ve ever visited: the Train Station Inn<\/a> in Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n

Fleeing from the summer heat of Florida to Canada for a week in early July has become an Ewen family tradition. We enroll our daughter in an interesting camp, rent an Airbnb, work remotely and explore a new city with (hopefully) mild temperatures. Last year was a culinary camp in Toronto, and this year was an aerial circus camp in Halifax, Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n

We loved our weeklong stay in Halifax, with an easily walkable downtown and fantastic restaurants. We also enjoyed the gorgeous countryside on the wine tour we did on July 4.<\/p>\n
