And a Little More Halifax

At the Citadel

The citadel in Halifax was built for defence, but it never saw battle. It towers over the city. Every time I visit sites from the past I am grateful for many of the advantages of living at the time I do.

Looking Up

The hills in Halifax provide good views - looking up

Looking Out

and looking out...

Windows

Our walks took us all around the city.

Halifax

Boats

So much to catch up on. My three weeks of silence were spent travelling. I am just back today and starting to deal with far too many photographs. We started our trip in Halifax on our way to Iceland. Halifax, in Nova Scotia is on the Atlantic Ocean. Many boats, ships, and stories of ships.

A Colourful Street

Like many maritime cities, there seems to be a love of colour. Maybe it is necessary to stand out in the fog that the sea air brings.

In the Fog

It is a great city for walking (the hills keep you in shape).
more to come...
