Halifax

We hit a bit of a slump after the majesty of Fogo. To go from the island and Inn's tranquility to a city was jarring and a bit taxing on morale. We rode it out and fought fire with fire and righted ourselves eventually. 

Halifax history is wonderful, so Scott and I were especially thrilled with the Citadel, Halifax's perfectly placed fortress. It's a National Historic Site, complete with interpreters and docents in costume. And bagpipes!!!

National Historic Sites are hard for people who don't like museums or galleries. 

But the school room provided an opportunity to display penmanship and math prowess. 

Back to the hotel for pants and sweaters.
