Badeck, The Beginning of the Cabot Trail

Badeck, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia

We arrived in Badeck, the final home of Alexander Graham Bell.  Two of the most beautiful bits of history that I gained here were the fact of Bell's true humility and his love of the simple beauty of nature.
He wished to be remembered solely as a teacher of the deaf.
He wanted his home to overlook the ocean and to be away from the bustle of big cities.
