Halifax Day 8


Another day out exploring in Halifax. Today's adventure included a sail on a real honest to goodness sailboat! How cool is that!


The boat we took while it was docked...















Practicing my pirate face











Jessi and I on deck....













The three muskateers










So I definitely do want to learn how to sail one day! It was so much fun being out on the water on the boat, no motors or engine noises, just the wind and the sea!



So Ottawa used to be my favorite Canadian city outside of Saskatchewan, but I think Halifax now has the edge over Ottawa. A charming, picturesque city, with a wealth of history, lots of parks and green spaces, fun exciting things to do, outdoor adventures at your doorstep, fresh seafood and the city is not monsterously large.

We went for supper on the wharf tonight, and the restaurant had live jazz music tonight! So great.

Bwaaa-ha-ha-ha (evil laughter, with The Last Saskatchewan Pirate theme song in the background). Another potential addict to wind and waves, eh, matey? We'll be looking for competent crew soon enough!

Good to hear that Halifax is a hit. Blessings!

Glad you are loving the wind and the sea in the summer. Wonder what it would be like out there on the coast in the winter? Will there be crisp crunchy snow that is so loud it talks to you? Will you be able to read your words in you breath? Have a great day!
