There are ferries from Maine to Nova Scotia.

Back in 1982, my family and I took a ferry from Bar Harbor to Yarmouth, NS. The trip was terrific, but I wished we could have spent more time in NS--we only drove around the western half of the island for about 24 hours all told before we got back on the ferry and headed back to Maine.

I'm pretty sure that ferry is still in operation.

My mother adds that the "cruise ship" ferry called Prince of Fundy is awful. There's something called The Cat that's faster and she says it's better.

It is! [link]

Well, megan, that's actually a timely question. There's a ferry that goes from Portland, ME to Yarmouth NS, but it's been losing money for years and depending on gov't subsidies. The provincial gov't just cut them off, but they are waiting to hear if they will get some federal funding to keep them going. The same company also has a Saint John NB, to Digby, NS ferry.

The short answer is there may be a ferry. Also, think the Maine-NS ferry is seasonal, and only runs during tourist season.

ETA: Because I really do know my megan's from my msbelle's.

There's a ferry between Bar Harbour, near Acadia, and Yarmouth, Nova Scotia:

Awesome. Thanks, not-Sues!

ETA: And Sue!

Huh. Possible evidence for another universe: Is the "Great Void" One-Billion Light Years Across the Imprint of Another Universe or a Statistical Error?

In 2004 astronomers found an enormous hole in the southern hemisphere of the Universe, nearly a billion light-years across, empty of both normal matter such as stars, galaxies, and gas, and the mysterious, unseen "dark matter." This was a startling finding, since accepted models of the early universe say that the big bang created an initially uniform cosmic landscape, when viewed on large scales. While earlier studies have shown holes, or voids, in the large-scale structure of the Universe, this discovery dwarfed them all. This "nothing" is an enormous hole in the cosmos that defies standard cosmology and might just be the imprint of another universe bumping against our own while some astronomers suggested the spot could be a supervoid, a remnant of an early phase transition in the universe.

...

Meanwhile, Laura Mersini-Houghton of the University of North Carolina theorizes is that it could be the imprint of another universe beyond our own, caused by quantum entanglement between universes before they were separated by cosmic inflation. Laura Mersini-Houghton said, "Standard cosmology cannot explain such a giant cosmic hole" and made the remarkable hypothesis that the WMAP cold spot is "… the unmistakable imprint of another universe beyond the edge of our own."

I wonder if everyone in that universe wears a goatee...

(Hey, I had to make that joke. Or someone else would have.)

Well, my dad seems to have overdrawn his bank account. Nice trick, given that he died in February and all of his accounts were cancelled by March. So here I sit in the bank.

Did they charge a "You're dead and canceled your account" fee?
