Tuesday we headed for a beach south of Halifax about half an hour away. It was the first sandy beach we came across. There are 3 beaches right there close by and one is supposed to be a nude beach. We were hoping the weather would be too cold for any of that going on.
We were pretty much the only people here and the weather was not that warm, and -- the water was FREEZING!!! Sticking my feet in it was all I had a desire to do.
Jeff's mom got a little bit hungry and thought the seaweed sounded like a good treat.
After that, we headed back down to the harbour in Halifax. We took the public transit boat across the harbour to Dartmouth, stayed there for about 15 minutes and got back on the boat to come back to Halifax. FYI -- If any of you plan on coming to Halifax, you would probably want to stay on the Halifax side of the bay, sorry to all of you Dartmouth lovers, it really was not that exciting.
That's a picture of the boat we took across the bay.
Eating on the pier, it was kind of cold, but the atmosphere is fabulous.
That evening, the Smith's invited us over for dinner. Jeff went out on splits with Jeff when Jeff was on his mission (follow that?). Jeff, Chantelle, Eli, Daniel, Eden and Thomas (if I remember the name of the other son, I will add it). Eden's shirt was a classic that I just might buy if I find it, it reads: "Canada is pretty much awesome."
One thing I have noticed about Nova Scotia is that life here in general is so laid back and easy going. They make everything so simple. I probably won't change many of the things I do, but I sure do want to re-evaluate my life and try to reduce and simplify. Life does not need to be so complicated.
