Thanks for good information, I hope see you here in my country.
Sounds like you saw a lot of my city in a short time! Glad you liked it. btw that will be the Spring Garden Road library not Spring Hill.
Maybe he was a shy bagpiper, lol! We are hoping to get to Nova Scotia this year, so a very helpful page, thanks Katey. Great tips Halifax does look a nice city. Take care (~_~)
i REALLY LIKE YOUR PAGE. sAW MANY OF YOUR TIPS LAST TIME i WAS THERE. iT IS A GREAT CITY!!!
Very well done page. Your tips are well written and quite alot of fun. I would like to go back to Halifax but the big blueberry was really scary.
Sooo glad to hear you enjoyed Halifax. We are from Nova Scotia and we lived outside of Halifax. We now live in Toronto, but we love to go back to Nova Scotia to party and visit. Safe travels from travelling Canadians.
You've built up an amazing page here since I first checked! Great photos and tips, I love this city too! Especially enjoyed your thoughts on the Churchill statue & nice to see the Gardens are OK after Hurricane Juan last year!
Halifax looks great! Mighty scary giant blueberry though. Lou has a thing for cigars, I'll keep that place in mind. Love the pic of Bobby with the Bagel! :)
I like cities that don't blindly raze old buildings in favour of the new and, instead, create a vivid contrast between old and new. Nice accounting so far on Halifax, I'll be back for more.
The MTT building behind the waterfront picture is where I worked on a project for a handful of months!! I love Halifax the fact that you can walk to everything - I even did not mind doing that in the middle of winter. Did you eat at the Five Fishermans?
