Bay of Fundy

The Bay of Fundy is a large inlet that receives the biggest changes in the tides in the world.  The tide swings up to 52 feet in some areas! We got to see this phenomenon from four different perspectives over many days.  The locations that we decided to view the Read more…

Lunenburg

Just down the coast from Halifax is a quaint little fishing village with beautifully colored buildings called Lunenburg. It started to rain so we tucked into a little covered bar outdoor place called “Half Shell” for drinks and appetizers: I have to say that the oysters were really good – Read more…

Halifax
