It is nice to relax on the porch when it is not humid.
 I am going to show you some pictures that explain why
Mom was home late on Friday night!
She actually made us wait for supper!
We forgave her though because she gave us some treats and 
lots of attention!


Mom stopped to see the Tall Ships in Halifax.
One of the ships was The Bounty.


When Mom was coming home she took the ferry across
 Halifax Harbour and saw the big masts of the 




This is the tall ship Larinda and it has quite a story.
What happened to it was sad, but it is now restored.


This is a short history.
It says it's home port is Boutilier's Point.
That's where our furcousins live!!!!!

Friday Thoughts with Georgia and Tillie

Well guess what? Yesterday was sunny and HOT!!
It has been very warm pretty much all week!!
Yesterday it was 27 C!! That is 80.6 F!!
That temperature set new record highs for March!
The last record high in March was in 1979 and 
the temperature was 10 C or 50 F !!
Today it is still nice and sunny, but it is
13C.(55 F )


Yup, it is cooler today. Yesterday Mom was off, 
so she got together with Auntie and TallSon.


They went down to the waterfront in Halifax.


A tall ship was visiting. It is a training ship
and is called the Simon Bolivar


As you can see, it is pretty big!


Pretty long too! They went on board to have
a look around. They took pictures and Mom
will share some with you another day.
It was a busy week, so we did not get to visit
many of our friends. Mom said we can do  some
visiting on the weekend!!! Yay!!!


We hope you all have a super fun weekend too !!!!
