    I know everyone throws the odd Non Disney topic in here, so today its my turn. ;

    Just returned from a family vacation to Nova Scotia. ; Spent 7 nights seeing the sites of this beautiful province. ; This was the first time for our family travelling to the Maritimes and it did not disappoint. ; Spent several days in Halifax, a couple of days on the South Shore in a couple of quaint fishing villages, and 3 nights at the north end of the Annapolis valley. ; Went Whale Watching, checked out the Canadian Fleet in Halifax Harbour (there were there for the Queens Visit and to celebrate the 100) and toured the Alexander Keith's Brewery. ; All in all, a fantastic trip with lots of stories to tell about. ; Even got to see a US Aircraft carrier.

    Here are a few pics. ; For a prairie boy, it was a great experience and we have already decided to head back.

    Is that picture of an aircraft carrier? Didn't know we had one.

    I love the shot of the gang in the survival suits.
