Best Shots of the Trip












Between the both of us, Marlene and I took 789 photos on our recent trip. That's not including the videos as well. Now the fun part of going through all of them and fixing, editing, etc. Out of that many pictures we were bound to a have a few real good ones. Here is a selection of some of our best shots during the trip. Some of these may be repeats from earlier blogs, however the photos have been cleaned up a bit now. From top to bottom these shots are: The Margart Todd, Scooner in Bar Harbor, Lighthouse in Halifax Harbor, a street scene near Time Square, Central Park, and an Amish Buggy near Bird In Hand, Pa. I can only put 5 photos at a time on this blog, so more best shots to come tomorrow.

Halifax, Nova Scotia












First stop on our cruise is beautiful Halifax. Spent the day walking around town and shopping! Halifax is a clean beautiful modern city. It is loaded with historical significance and tied to the Titanic where many of the bodies of those who perished were brought to shore. There are many universities and we saw many of their students out raising money for Cystic Fibrosis today. We did contribute and they were very pleased. Pictures are the gazebo in the Public Gardens, the Halifax town clock, a picture of us in the Public Garden, a sailboat in the harbor, and a tugboat moored along the boardwalk near where we docked. Tomorrow on to St Johns, New Brunswick!
