Jamie and Jennifer are exploring Nova Scotia's eastern island, Cape Breton. Everywhere they go, they see how the region's Gaelic culture mixes with its natural history. Arriving in Sydney, the hosts meet Kelsey MacNeil, who shows them a thing or two about step dancing at a traditional Ceilidh on the docks. Kelsey lives on the banks of Bras d'Or Lake, one of the world's only inland seas, and after some kayaking with their young friend, the hosts press on to meet up with Eugene Eagle Denny. Eugene is a sixth generation Mi'kmaq medicine man, who is also an eagle conservation expert. He explains why the area has such a large population of bald eagles, and what their spiritual significance is to the First Nations people of the island.
