We walked the boardwalk for a time in the humid heat. There was a Tour Ship in port so there were lots of people around. All the souvenir shops were open for business. Some of them open only when the tour ships are in. They sold t-shirts, sweat shirts, plastic lobsters, key chains, lupin seeds - everything needed to remember a trip to Halifax. Carter and Langley found many things that they really, really needed.
Nova Scotia is known for its pewter. The Amos Pewter shop had beautiful ornaments, jewellery and tablewear for sale. We bought some earrings and such. My favourite was a nativity set which was too expensive for me. Below is a picture of it taken from their catalogue.
There was also a shop called "Silks". It had bolts of silk for sale, other chinese ornaments and also pearls that came from Hangzhou.
We caught the ferry back to Dartmouth. Later Tara and boys came and said goodbye to the Mosers.
After supper we drove to the airport and were sad to see them go.
