Ciad Mille Failte from Halifax, Nova Scotia

As the ship approached the dock, bagpipers and drummers played a welcome. We toured the old city in a horse drawn trolley and then split a glass of Alexander Kieth's India Pale Ale. We passed the brewery on the tour and learned it is the oldest brewery in North America to be located on it's original site. We got acquainted with two Canadian ladies who were drinking Pepsi at the next lunch table in the cruise terminal and had a wonderful conversation with them about Canada and the USA. They said it was OK that Michelle put her arm around the Queen, in fact they said the Queen put her arm around Michelle's waist first.

The weather remains perfect.
