Canada Day 2

Today was our first real day in Canada. We were planning to wake up early so we could go to Saint John, Darlings Island, Hope Well Rocks, and then to Halifax. We ended up sleeping in and getting much needed sleep. We woke up and ate breakfast got ready and headed out around noon. The Pattison's were so great to let us stay at their home. Especially since they had family coming into town just a few days later. We started our day driving to Darlings Island, which was so pretty. They have covered bridges that are so scenic and reminds me of many of the older movies I love. We headed from there to Saint John. It was a very interesting place, it was foggy, fishman town that had its own unique smell. We just drove around there in Tanner's area and went and saw where his old apartment was. On the way you are suppose to be able to see these towers that say IRVING but it was so foggy the day we were there you couldnt see anything. I just had to trust Tanner was right in what he was saying.
We ended up eating lunch in Saint John and then headed up to Halifax. We drove for what seemed like not very long. There roads are much different to drive on because no matter where you are going you cannot see where you are going in the distance. It makes for trips in the car seem much shorter. We ended up getting to Halifax later than we planned but we took full advantage of it.
                                  

We went down to the pier and ate dinner there. They had fresh seafood there. We ate at a restaurant called Murphy's. It was good.

Then we decided to walk on the pier there were musicians from all of the place. This weekend was some kind of festival so there was a lot more going on in Halifax than normal. We decided at dinner to stay a bed and breakfast. We called and the lady said she would not be there but that her sister would come and let us in and take care of us. She was such a nice lady.

When we were finally done exploring the pier, it was time for us to track down where the Halifax temple is and go visit it even though it was late. So we drove across the bridge to Dartmouth. He basically got there took pictures and left. There were so many spider on the fence, I didnt want to get to close.
It was late and time to find our bed and breakfast.  We drove back around to Halifax and found it located right on the shore. It was just a road between us and the water. Many pictures to come.

We had a wonderful night in Halifax!
