Halifax, Nova Scotia

We got the HoHo bus tickets, and stopped at thearitime Museum of the Atlantic. Exhibits include Titanic and the Halifax Explosion in 1917. A Belgian relief ship and a French munitions ship collided. The munitions ship exploded, killed over 2000 people and burned down much of the city.. I saw a model of Mauritania- the ship that brought my Gramma Folk to America in 1920.

At the end of the bus run, we went to The Bicycle Thief for lunch. SO good- I can highly recommend it.

Going back to the ship I found the Tartan Wool shop- and a skein of yarn jumped into my arms. I was unable to protect myself-- it had merino and cashmere and nylon, oh my!

Came back to a healthy treat, compliments of the Concierge.Leggi altro
