Private Cruiseship Excursions

Hello Again from Nova Scotia and YOUR The Almost Free Family Fun in Halifax, Nova Scotia DIY Cruise Ship Excursion

Today is the 9th of September and from the "crack of dawn" the Sun was shinning -- WOW -- it seems we hardly ever see it any more; this day it was big, bright and beautiful and so was our day. Joanne Spears and her extended family from Homestead Florida visiting from the NCL Spirit - a colourful ship to say the least ( see the snapshots . . . ! ) had us take them on a private ship excursion - with a request to try and keep away from other tours --- three ships in port on the 9th.


Today the 9th and for our The Almost Free Family Fun in Halifax, Nova ScotiaDIY Cruise Ship Excursion we had chartered a vehicle from Cabana Charters - one of our preferred suppliers. Our driver was Jason Heath ( at the end of the day he received kudos from Joanne for his skillful driving -- yes he is a careful, prudent driver -- just what Blue Diamond Tours asks for and gets for our various outings.


Our first stop of the day was Mahone Bay ( we were way ahead of the crowd - most of the day ) and later Lunenburg -- and we all got to see the Bluenose II come in to it's home port dock - near the Fisherman's Museum ( see the snapshots ).


Next it was off to Chester - a drive through - tour along Route 3 -- Saint Margaret's Bay for the most part - to Peggy's Cove ( yes we did arrive at the correct time - very few and I do mean very few passengers from the 3 ships in port were around during our stop - we achieved our goal - to see Peggy's Cove without crowds around !)

While I was waiting ( it was a 40 minute stop-over ) Boastcard ( http://www.boastcard.com/ ) gave me a sample of their unique card. For those seeking a business opportunity contact them directly !!!


Following our various encounters at Peggy's Cove - we drove to the White's Lake area ( Route 333 ) on our way to historic Halifax and our return to Joanne's ship the NCL Spirit .
And . . . . for a change the sun was shinning all day . . .
