Halifax, Nova Scotia

We arrive in the harbor for Halifax and this is our view as we were eating breakfast.

​When we got ashore, we were greeted by a bagpiper and saw this excursion group leaving for a farm.  Hilarious!

​We have our own personal tour guide.  Phyllis has a friend that lives nearby and met us on shore. She and her daughter toured the boardwalk with us and answered questions about the area.

We spent some time in the craft and food fair.  One thing we purchased was from RawThenticChocolate which is handmade raw chocolate bars. The chocolate was fantastic.  The shops had some amazing food and an interesting sense of humor.

A​s we started down the boardwalk, we had a very nice view of the ship.

​A couple of young ladies were dancing for donations.  I think they were collecting the money for a trip.

​Our plan for the walk was to see the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.  They have exhibits on seafaring and a large area dedicated to the sinking of the Titanic.  So much information and it was amazing looking at the exhibits of items that were from the ship.

​Back to the ship for the sail away. ​Across from the dock was a small island with a lighthouse.  The water traffic was interesting.

​Time for dinner and some pretty interesting desserts.

​I don’t think I have shown very much of the spa.  This is the hydro pool that Shawna liked so much.

​We did have a pretty sunset as we moved off to our next port.

​Some more music and then off to bed.  We have had a long day, but first we are going to the Orange Party.  This is a celebration of the House of Orange which is the royal family's heritage in the Netherlands.

We had fun, free horderves, and great music at the Orange Party.
