Halifax, Nova Scotia

Left for the airport at 5:00 AM to catch our 7:00 AM flight to New York's JFK.  Our connecting flight left at 11:40 AM and we arrived in Halifax at 2:30 PM.  Both flights on time!

Waiting for the bus to take us to downtown Halifax





Waiting for bus 320


It was an hour ride from the airport to our hotel - bus fare was $5.50 Canadian vs. $40-$60 Canadian via taxi.

Our hotel - the Waverley Inn 



Checked in and before we went to our room, we had coffee and tea in the lobby


We have a tiny room, very clean


Walked to Henry's House for dinner, just up the street

Mare had Shepard's Pie 


I had haddock with vegetables and rice


After dinner we walked down to the harbor



Stopped to watched a huge cruise ship leaving port


And then it was gone - foggy out there


We'll finish the harbor walk tomorrow.  Don't think we will be taking the harbor cruise -
