!9 May, 2011
Had a really nice stay at the Officers Mess, Canadian Air Force Base, Shearwater, Nova Scotia. Went to Happy Hour. Not the same as when we were Lieutenants. The young officers are afraid to drink because it can ruin their career. Met some nice folks at the bar and we went downstairs for a great dinner and even greater fellowship.
This morning I launched out of Halifax a little after 0800 heading southwest along the coast. With the overcast, everything looks dull. Destination is Yarmouth NS. I decided to take a side trip to Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. If you have ever seen Nova Scotia portrayed in National Geographic or other professional magazines these two towns are always a part of their stories. The church is one of three located in Mahone Bay. The remainder of the pictures are from Lunenburg. My camera, lack of photographic skills and the overcast weather do not help in showing the real beauty of these little villages. The colors are so alive, vibrant and eye catching, I can't do justice to their beauty. I need Sam or Kristen up here with me taking the pictures.
Good night All.
