Here it is: a very late, final Halifax blog post. I thought I’d share a few photos from my last week in town, when I was touring about with the parents.

Dad and I toured the Citadel, then wandered down to the harbour, where a Mexican training ship – the Cuauhtemoc – was open for visiting. I’m pretty sure Dad could have moved aboard quite happily.

Mom arrived a few days later, and we continued to wander around the city. We had tea and oatcakes in the Public Gardens, hiding in the coffee house to avoid the rain.

We drove down to Lunenberg, then back up through Mahone Bay and Peggy’s Cove.

I convocated on the Tuesday, and we flew home the next day – 12 suitcases in tow. (6 checked, 6 carry-on)
Now I’m searching for a job, and enjoying being back home. I was looking forward to some hot, dry weather, but the Halifax rain has followed me back to Alberta. Thanks to all of you who kept me sane by phoning and sending me messages during the past two years – I hope you’ve enjoyed this blog as much as I have!
