Tuesday 21 August

Woke up to gorgeous clear blue skies - what a wonderful day to leave our little island.
We drove down to Wood Islands, to catch the ferry across to Nova Scotia (thought it would be nice to travel back a slightly different way!) The ferry crossing was fab - like a mill pond, so we sat on the upper deck and relaxed in the sun for 75 minutes!
Once in Nova Scotia, we drove straight to Halifax, and checked into our hotel. Then it was down to Dartmouth Harbour to catch the ferry across to Halifax - which we love. Had a lovely walk along the boardwalk and an enormous energy juice drink. We walked into the town to find a bank for me (having absolutely no money as usual!) - and found a HSBC!!!! Got money out of my Nat West account, no problem!! Then.. the funniest thing... saw a man waiting to cross the road, who had obviously been to the rest room and not quite tucked himself in/zipped up properly - as there was quite a bit showing which shouldn't have been!!! Thing was, I looked at Charlotte - who had obviously spotted this too, and cracked up laughing - in fact couldn't stop!!!! It was hilarious - poor guy!!!
Once we'd got our last few dollars to last us until the end of our holiday - we went back on the ferry to Dartmouth, to the hotel for a swim. This one has a great water slide, but the water was freezing!!!
After showers, we headed to the Mic Mac Mall, for the last hour of shopping before it closed for the night! Didn't have time to do much damage... but there's always tomorrow!!!
