Hello from Halifax...
This is a beautiful city...  Weather has been great, showing off the foliage that mains on the trees...  A lot of Tamarac, both here and on the rock...
I sure needed that "maintenance" day on Mon/Tues, have been hitting it pretty hard for these tired old bones, ha!
Wed., paid a visit to the concierge to see what tours were still available, not many, it turns out...  Before renting a car, took a stroll along the waterfront, having brekkie at a marketplace along the way...  Went through' the Maritime Museum, great display of Titanic items, then went on the Harbour Hopper, an amphibian vehicle, that firstly took us on a tour through' downtown, then right into the water for a water tour...  It was very cool!
Got back to the hotel to p/u the car, a red Tooooyota Carolla, goes like stink, ha!  I'm off to Peggy's Cove, fabulous day for driving, sunny, but oh, so beautiful!  The road skirts the coastline, reminded me of Sea to sky and Chuckanut, in parts...  Peggy's Cove is breathtaking, very baron, but beautiful...  I ventured on to Lunenburg for dinner, yes, had lobster, but salad together with a fabulous soup...
By this time it was dark, so took the fwy back into the city, and surprise, surprise, didn't get lost, yahoo!
Then home, James, great day!
'til next time...
