Sid and Idee head to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, a UNESCO world heritage site, to learn a bit more about Canada's east coast history and culture. First, our intrepid explorers go on a Lunenburg ghost tour with tour guide Eric Croft and fearless kid correspondents Spencer, Lauren and Victoria. Next, they learn the ropes on a working lobster boat from the Lobstermen, John William England and Barry Levy, where Sid and Idee get to shake hands with a real live lobster. At the Marine and Fisheries Museum Curator of Education, Ralph Getson, along with Navy Cadet, Courtney, show our adventurers how boats are built, christened and sailed. Along with Ralph and Courtney, Sid and Idee set sail on Bluenose II, the replica of the Bluenose, Canada's most famous tall ship. It appears on the Canadian dime, which gives Eldon a great idea. If the Bluenose can be minted onto a coin, so can he! While Sid and Idee learn about our nation's shipbuilding and fishing history, Eldon is hard at work on his own, trying to decide how he should appear on his own coin. What's his best profile, the right side or the left?
