more from my travel journal


Continued Wednesday, August 26 - Halifax
4:33 pm
Travis, Jackie and I spent the day exploring Halifax. Kalvin and Tyler-dad would really love this place - a lot of the bars and restaurants have silly names. But Kal should wait until he’s 19, so he can drink legally! I almost bought some flower seeds for mom, but realized that it might be illegal to take back home - sorry! We’re rooming with another SASer, and the four of us are going to get dinner tonight!

Thursday, August 27 – Halifax
4:42 pm
Today is perfect out. The sun is shinning, no clouds in the sky, and it is 70 degrees. A great last day in Halifax! It feels like Florida’s not-summers!

18:35 pm
I switched to a 24 hour time, because that’s what we will be using on the ship. Jackie and I sent out postcards today, and toured the Citadel. We got a lovely tour, and learned a lot! I love how green it is here. We plan on going out to The Dome, a club in Halifax, tonight to meet up with some other Semester at Sea participants! It should be a good time and it’s a free cover! The ship is already docked, and I get to board around 9am TOMORROW! The ship is only about a 10 minute walk from our hostel, too! It hardly feels real, and I can’t believe it’s here already!
