    Herbin Cross at Grand Pre

    2018年9月2日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    Both a National Historic site and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this park commemorates the Grand-Pré Acadian settlement from 1682 to 1755, and the British deportation of the Acadians that happened during the French and Indian War.

    The Fort was closed but we took a look at the nice gardens on the property and found the Herbin Cross.

    In 1907, John Frederic Herbin purchased the land believed to be the site of Saint-Charles des-Mines Church to preserve it for the Acadian community. He erected this stone cross on the site of the old cemetery.

    Fort Edward National Historic Site

    2018年9月2日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    The fort – which today consists primarily of a simple wooden blockhouse which once housed soldiers – was built in 1750 by the British to assert their newly established authority over both Acadian settlers (of French origin) and the local Mi’kmaq people. In 1755, Fort Edward would serve as a prison and deportation centre for 1,200 Acadians, part of a sombre historical chapter known as the Deportation of the Acadians.もっと詳しく

    The year 2018 marks the 145th anniversary of the construction of the Walton Lighthouse. For over 100 years the lighthouse stood as a Beacon of Hope guiding wooden sailing ships during the Golden Age of Sail 1830 – 1880 and steel hulled steamers through to the 1970s. The Walton Lighthouse is the last original lighthouse in Hants County.もっと詳しく

    2018年9月2日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    So there was this gorgeous red sunset.. and we tried desperately to hurry to park and get around the trees to grab a photo but it set inceribly fast and we missed it. Oops. If we didn't take that extra time having dessert at the crepe place, we woukd have made it. Good thing that crepe was really really good.

    We got here at high tide unfortunately, but if you ever come here, try to come at low tide. You'd get to walk around further and see all sorts of shore life exposed by the receding waters. Check out the time lapse video on this webpage.

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    Wikipedia:
    "Citadel Hill is a hill that is a National Historic Site in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Four fortifications have been constructed on Citadel Hill since 1749, and were referred to as Fort George—but only the third fort (built between 1794 and 1800) was officially named Fort George, by General Orders of October 20, 1798, after Prince Edward's father, King George III. The first two and the fourth and current fort, were officially called the Halifax Citadel."もっと詳しく

    Prince Edward was tired of the local soldiers always being late, so had this clock tower built in the year 1800.

    Unfortunately it is being restored so it doesn't look like much right now. I also added a photo i took of an image of what it normally would look like.もっと詳しく

    Bluenose II Restaurant & Grill

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    We were hoping to have a really quick fast food meal at a highly recommended place called Tin Pan Alley. Sadly, we discovered that, unlike back home, malls are closed on holidays, therefore so was the food court.

    We wandered around for a Plan B... and ended up walking into the Bluenose II Restaurant & Grill. It was 11:30 but they were still only serving breakfast.

    Let me start by saying, we would never eat here again. I will say that the portions were very generous, almost excessive, frankly... I mean, look at all that toast for goodness sakes. Did they give us a whole loaf of bread? But the food wasn't great, and it was incredibly salty.

    The service wasn't very good either. With the salty food I finished my drink rather quickly and there was no server in sight to ask for a refill until we had long finished eating. My eggs were not cooked the way I ordered them either, but I ate them anyway so as to not have to wait forever for a new plate.

    The food didn't sit well with either of us. I pretty much felt a little sick the rest of the day. As, a result I have fallen behind with sharing my posts today, and am playing catch up now at almost 10 pm.

    We also didn't go out for our planned dinner tonight either because neither of us felt much like eating.
    We were supposed to have gone out to the Armview Diner. The restaurant was featured on the TV show "You Gotta Eat Here". We even drove all the way there and parked, but we both confessed we weren't feeling it and we ended up driving away.

    Maritime Museum of the Atlantic

    The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic is the oldest and largest Maritime Museum in Canada. The original concept of the Museum can be credited to a group of Royal Canadian Navy officers who envisioned a maritime museum where relics of Canada’s naval past could be conserved.
    There is also a small titanic Exhibit at this museum. See next post for those photos.

    Titanic Exhibit @ Maritime Museum

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    I think eveeyone knows the story of the Titanic... I dont think I need to go into much detail here... but i do find it surprising that a lot of Western Canadians either forget or don't remember that the Titanic actually sank near Canada and Halifax played a huge role in the rescue operations and the retrieval of the floating bodies afterward.

    First photo is a model of the Titanic.
    2nd is a recovered chunk of an archway from the ship. If you zoom in on the image on the purple card in the photo, it shows you where the arch was on the ship.
    3rd is a recovered deck chair from the ship
    4th is a model of the life boats that would have been on the ship.
    5th is a chunk of a pillar at the bottom of the grand staircase. There are 2 chunks there but one is the real one behind glass and the other is a fibreglass replica that people can touch. If you look on the left of the large image of the staircase you will see where the chunk originated.
    6th is some interesting statistics about the passengers based on class, gender and age.

    Halifax Harbor

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    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.

    Canadian Museum of Immigration @ Pier 21

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Pier 21 (another National Historic Site) was the gateway to Canada for one million immigrants between 1928 and 1971. It also served as the departure point for 500,000 Canadian Military personnel during the Second World War.

    We found some interesting connections to Matt's family here. I have a separate post for that... stay tuned.

    SS Arosa Star & MS Vulcania

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Within The museum we found this little connection to Matthew's family history.

    The SS Arosa is the ship that Matt's dad came in on when he immigrated to Canada (landing in Montreal) in 1954... he was only a few months old at the time.

    The MS Vulcania is the ship that Matt's mom arrived on when she came to Canada (landing right here in Halifax) as a refugee in 1958. She was only about 1.5 years old at the time.

    This was really neat to see. In previous trips we've stopped at places with connections to my family history (my ancestors came to Canada wayyyy back in the 1700s!) so it was really awesome to touch on a bit of Matt's from the 1950's. I love comparing the differences between our family history. So neat!

    Fort Needham Memorial Park

    2018年9月3日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    On the morning of December 6th, 1917 in the port city of Halifax, an explosion took place that obliterated half of the town in an instant.
    A French munitions ship, the Mont-Blanc, crashed into a Belgian relief ship, the Imo. The Mont-Blanc was fully loaded with high explosives. The resulting explosion was the largest man made detonation until the nuclear bomb.
     
    Nearly 2,000 people lost their lives instantly, and 9,000 were terribly injured. The north end of Halifax simply disappeared. The force of the explosion was so violent that a three ton anchor was found two miles away.
     
    The explosion devastated the city and its families. A moving monument in the shape of a bombed home, ripped apart, stands on the hill overlooking the harbor at Fort Needham Park. The bells which form part of the memorial give some insight to the terrible tragedy which struck Halifax; they were donated by survivor Barbara Orr, who lost both parents, three brothers and two sisters that tragic morning.
