Halifax!!

So we have safely arrived in Halifax! The plane was super teeny tiny (held 50 people...talk about claustrophobic!!) and there was quite a bit of turbulence. Nova Scotia was so pretty from the plane--there are lakes and forests with the occasional development. The city is right on the water, our hotel is literally 2 blocks from the water's edge! We are going to walk down to Pier 20 tomorrow, which is where the MV Explorer will be docked. So excited!!

After checking into the hotel, we decided we were starving and needed some grub. About 3 blocks from the hotel was an Irish pub called Durty Nelly's (you think that's a bad restaurant name? There's another called Your Father's Moustache...no joke!!). After a stressful night of packing and a day at the airport, pub food was calling. =) Below is Steve enjoying his chicken pot pie and me enjoying my delicious burger with Guinness cheese. YUMMM!
All of the condiments were Heinz =) Halifax loves Pittsburgh! After dinner, we walked down to the water to check out the docks. There were lots of people walking their dogs, which made me miss my puppy =(
Quite pretty! Anyway, that's about it for tonight. It's an hour later here than it is in York and it's been a long day!
