Yarmouth to Halifax, Nova Scotia

Today, Sunday June 26, we left Yarmouth in the fog again, and cool temperatures in the low 50's. By mid-afternoon it reached the 60's. We came along the coast for a while on Rt. 3, but it was slow going. Numerous fishing villages but little else there. We got back on Rt. 103 which was a bit faster. We stopped in Mahone Bay as was suggested by someone in Yarmouth and had lunch. We continued along 103 until we neared Peggy's Cove, which we read was a must see- location. Check out the photos attached. This spot was beautiful- we walked all over the rocks to view the ocean. By late afternoon we arrived in Halifax. We were supposed to satay on campus at Delhousie University but realized it was too far away from the waterfront area, So we checked in to the Radisson- pretty fancy compared to how we usually travel, but I am not complaining!!

Interesting yard display- nothing like this at home!

Stay tuned for more travels tomorrow- providing we have wifi. Last night's motel advertised having it but I could only get one bar!
