Atlantic Canada

[Cotuit]

I took a trip to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick a few years ago. Here's a few of the pictures, it was pouring rain and spitting snow most of the time I was there, but I managed to have a nice time anyway.

We took the ferry from Portland, Maine. Here's the view from the ferry arriving at Yarmouth, Nova Scotia:

One of the bridges in Halifax, I can't remember which one:

Wow! I've never been to Nova Scotia, though I've often thought about taking one of the ferries out of Portland, ME. Maybe next summer...

The one out of Portland is overnight, it's like a white trash cruise. They have a casino and dinner theatre. It was fun. there's also a high speed ferry out of Bar Harbor that makes the crossing in a few hours. Haven't been on that one yet.

Thanks for the info on the ferries. I've often thought of trying one. I wonder why they don't have on from Boston, seems like it would have more of a customer base.

I remember some talk of a ferry out of Boston. I believe there's a cruise line that heads to Atlantic Canada and the St. Lawrence from Boston.

Edit:

Yes, do a search for 'Boston Halifax Cruise' or something like that and a bunch of agencies come up.
