    1&2 - The Last Steps Memorial Arch. The Halifax waterfront is where thousands of Canadian men and women took their last steps as they embarked on ships to Europe during the First World War. There were around 350,000 Canadian men and women who boarded ships in Halifax to be taken overseas. About 60,000 never returned. This memorial arch was erected in 2016 to honor them.

    3&4 - Donair flavored and Lobster flavored chips, and a funny T-Shirt I contemplated buying to wear at work! (Just kidding, I love you guys!)

    5&6 - The CSS Acadia. One of the best preserved Ocean Steamships in the world. This ship was a former hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship of the Hydrographic Survey of Canada. It's now a National Historic Site.
