Harbour Hopper Tour

We toured for an hour on this amphibious vehicle (built by the U.S. for the VietnamWar). 30 minutes on land and 30 minutes on the water. The narrator was so silly and his jokes were so bad. For organized travel, we think we should stick with Elderhostel.

Tall Ship from Mexico

I will never forget watching on TV as the tall ships from around the world came into New York Harbor in 1976. Today we had a chance to walk around the deck of the Cuauhtémoc, the Mexican tall ship, docked in the harbor at Halifax. I wish Aida and Pablo could have been with us. They would have been proud!
Update: Lauren left a comment saying that Eduardo has been on this ship in 3 ports, Nagasaki, Ensenada and Acupulco.

Tug Boat Theodore

Apparently, this tug is the star of a Canadian childrens' TV show.

Piper on the Harbor

On the Halifax Harbour. In memory of Norwegians who were lost at sea or buried in Nova Scotia during the Second World War.
