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 . . .
