A few years ago, my wife and I visited Nova Scotia. Among the many places we visited was Peggy's Cove, a charming little village, with a restaurant/bar/gift shop on a rock outcropping by the sea.

After paying for our meal, the waitress told us to "be careful outside, because sometimes a wave will swoop in and carry a tourist away."

I thought she was kidding. But then it just happened again a few days ago.

Enjoy Nova Scotia, but watch out in Peggy's Cove!
