Another Day in Nova Scotia

This morning we woke up to beautiful blue skies for the third day in a row and there was no wind. It was the first day I wore shorts. After lunch the wind started to blow. We drove to the ferry that crosses the harbour from Dartmouth to Halifax. By the time we were on the ferry the sky had clouded over.

When we got to Halifax we walked to Nova Scotia Mall and did a bit of shopping and then went and walked along the boardwalk along the harbour. We had a brisk sea breeze to accompany us as we walked.

We could see St. George's Island from the boardwalk. This is where deportees (such as the Acadians) were imprisoned until ships came to haul them away.

We could see across the harbour to the Esso Refinery.

We returned to the ferry terminal in the rain. By the time Liam had to go to play soccer it was raining pretty good.
