Halifax, Nova Scotia

< -- Ollie meets the locals
Halifax town clock -- >



Halifax is a beautiful city around a large harbour with tree lined streets and classic handsome Victorian homes. The Titanic went down around here. We visited the graves of some of the people who were pulled from the water.

Speaking to the waitress during dinner, she told us how different a French accent is in France to Canada. She was told that she speaks like Celine Dion. Each region is different with New Brunswick mangling both English and French into a new Canadian super language.

The youth team of Canada played USA in the ice hockey here. We watched at a pub. Canada scored the winning goal with 2 minutes left. Everyone shouted, making Ollie cry. Awwwww.

Halifax has a nice harbour -- >
