Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada...

I was up very early for the sail into Halifax.  We rented a car near to the pier and were off and running...Cathy, Ann and I, with our Google Maps in hand, headed to Lunenburg and Peggy’s Cove. Today’s stop in Halifax was shorter than normal so time bring a factor we decided to forego a stop in Mahone Bay. As luck would have it, the GPS routed us through Mahone Bay…a nice surprise…the reflections shots of the 3 churches and the bay were the best ever. Arriving at the picturesque town of Lunenburg, a designated UNESCO World Heritage site, our first stop was the Bluenose Golf Course for a panoramic viewpoint across the harbor to the town. Unfortunately, the iconic Bluenose was not in port today. Back in town we walked around taking in the historic painted buildings, streetscapes and the waterfront.  It was a picture-perfect weather day…just a fabulous day to go to Lunenburg.  Peggy's Cove is famous for its Lighthouse and picturesque typical maritime fishing village look, even though it is a preserved area it is still a working fishing village of colorful wooden houses and lobster boats moored in the harbor. We had another beautiful day touring Nova Scotia’s South shore. The start of the fall colors and the wonderful reflection shots made the day… Just a fabulous day!!!
