I love visiting forts so I knew the Halifax Citadel was a must visit when we docked in Halifax last September. I didn’t know much about it except for the blurb that was included in the “What’s Ashore” portion of our ship’s daily In Port newletter. Reconstructed in 1856 asContinue Reading

I was goofing off with my iPod Touch the other day and somehow stumbled across the Wicked Walks ghost tour apps. I can’t remember which one I found first, but whichever one it was it prompted me to search to see if I could find anymore. I did. Three moreContinue Reading

Do you ever see things that make you think of people you know? Me too! Like last week’s Mothman conception pics, I’m once again attempting to participate in Wordless Wednesday. Sort of. I once again find the need to use a few words to explain myself. But I’m also attemptingContinue Reading
