I thought the fiddle was a crane. I need to make it to Cape Breton one day.

I saw a couple drum videos here a few weeks ago. This is a guy that has blown me away with his drumming. A lot of his videos are him doing one handed drumming at really impressive speeds. His bass work is the best I have ever heard.

It's the World's largest fiddle. Apparently it's capable of actually being played with the bow. It's a cheesy tourist attraction that people love getting their photo next to.

It's also used to refer to the cruise terminal colloquially. As in, "Beerfest is at the fiddle this year".
If it remains nice I might try and snap a photo for you today.

Kitschy #### for cruise ship passengers to take a picture in front of. Cruise drop areas are baffling little worlds. Particularly in countries where the passengers can't go anywhere out of the landing "town", which is just a Disney style facade of what someone imagined the ideal town for that place would be. Full of T-shirt shops, of course.

Here you go, a few shots of the Fiddle and one of it with the Carnival Magic being docked.
