Back in Halifax


We slept fantastic last night and after a nice breakfast we were on our way back to Lunenburg. We spent a good ninety minutes at the awesome museum on the waterfront. This museum was all about the fishing industry and included aquariums with fish from this part of the world.


We tagged along on a tour and got to listen to how fishing in the old days used to happen and the photo above is a fishing dorry and was a big part of the world of those fishermen.

We saw the sailboat we were on last night leave for a day tour so I got a photo of it under sail.


After eating homemade ice cream we drove all the historical downtown streets of this amazing town oogling all the neat houses. Oh my, but we love the old houses here!

We left Lunenburg by 2 P.M. and headed down the old highway like we have been doing a lot lately. Our ultimate target location was Peggy's Cove which was a couple of hours away on the slow back highways. On the way we came upon the location of the 20th anniversary remembrance of the SwissAir disaster. We stopped by for a few minutes and listened to some ministers/priests. There were family members there of deceased victims and the TV cameras were there too as it is big news. We did not stay long.

Peggy's Cove was busy but not too overwhelming. We snapped quite a few photos but 30 minutes there was enough.



 An hour drive later we were at the airport Quality Inn which is our home for two nights.

A wonderful day!
