Our final port on this cruise was Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Once we docked, Kathy and I walked along the boardwalk along the harbor. After lunch I went on an excursion called "Peggy's Cove Preservation Area Hike". Kathy had been to Peggy's Cove before so she stayed in town and did some shopping. After I got back we went and had a late lunch. In the evening I checked out a couple to bars to try local beer. We did not leave until after 11 PM.
