Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada





               

Halifax was BEAUTIFUL!
It is the capital of Nova Scotia and is a modern port city teeming with culture and heritage. The entire Halifax region was delighted with its impressive array of entertainment, attractions, fine restaurants, colourful gardens and lively nightlife. There were charming seaside towns, sun-drenched beaches, sparkling coves and miles of rugged shoreline guarded by graceful lighthouses. Halifax was a beutiful place of nature.
