Halifax Waterfront

After a long, particularly difficult night with Cailin and the teeth again, we got up and drove into Halifax to see the waterfront. We walked along the entire length of the boardwalk and got to see the sights. They are doing a lot of work to make the area more touristy. New buildings are going up and mixing with the old heritage ones. It was pretty. We walked underneath apartments right on the waterfront - imagine living there and getting that view every day! Cailin had a nap in her stroller as we walked along. I found a candy shop and bought homemade fudge and ice cream.

The day started off a little misty, but as the morning turned to afternoon, the fog rolled in thick across the harbor. It was neat to watch the fog come in and obscure the view and bathe everything in a light and dark shadow at the same time.
I missed seeing the naval ships on display for the 100th year of the Navy, but there were enough boats to tide me over. We saw tug boats too, and Theodore the Tug Boat was in harbor at the time.

For lunch we stopped at Salty's and ate fish and chips. Cailin really enjoyed the fish and ate a whole bunch of french fries off my plate. Then she discovered that if she threw fries on the wharf, birds would come and eat them. What a kick she got out of feeding the birds and laughing when they would come close to her! It was so sweet.
We got to see Pier 21, the place where all the immigrants came through on their journey into Canada. A cruise ship had just come in and it was really busy there so we weren't able to see the museum. We did, however, get to go next door to the shopping plaza and get some souvenirs.
On the way home, we got to stop at Old Navy. Lucky it was 30% off everything day because we went to town in there. Cailin got even more clothes - these ones her dad picked out specially for her.

Cailin got really sick later in the evening and had to have a second bath. Poor thing, those teeth are really giving her some trouble!
