My husband, sister and I are planning a trip this June to Nova Scotia, Cape Breton, PEI, and New Brusnwick! I am loving your videos and tips on places to see, etc.!

Visited there in the 90s and liked it. If I go back, I'll make sure to visit HMCS Sackville.
Great guide.

That corvette you show at 4:26 is the only one left. Also when I was a kid, I thought real cannon balls came out of the Citadel and were making a pile in the harbour. The sad thing about how Halifax treated the Titanic graveyard is at the time, Halifax was smaller, and they did not want the Titanic graveyard inside their city. Now, Halifax is much larger but you wouldnt know that otherwise. Glad you enjoyed the “chickens of the sea”. Also the Pizza Corner had one of the places replaced with one like yogurt shop or something. If you go to Edmonton, they do have a place called “Grafton and Blowers” which are the 2 street names.

I would love to go back home to Canada and go to Halifax Aly I've never been there before and Halifax looks amazing. Good lobster yummy 😋😋

OK Ally - you have to stop promoting Nova Scotia. I live in Halifax in the winter months and spend the summer and fall months months in Cape Breton on the Cabot Trail. You have done such a good job - we are going to be overrun by visitors. You and your partner did a wonderful job of capturing the area. One oversight though was the Fortress Louisburg. I guess you will have to come back and check that out.

[Wesbenfield]

This might be a weird compliment, but you have an amazing vocabulary

Got to go to King of Donair the Donaire is the official food of Halifax, not lobster fun fact
