Hello Again!

Recently the city that I'm staying at experienced the first snow of the season. It was kind of yucky and depressing looking but then it it warmed up a lot and all the snow disappeared!



We decided to take advantage of the nice weather so Fiete, Barney and I went to a place called Point Pleasant Park.



It is a great place to see the Atlantic Ocean.



Facing the other way you can see the big cranes that load and unload cargo ships.



This area used to be a big military bastion. From here the soldiers could see any ship that was entering the Halifax harbour. There are remains of this all over the park.





There are also lots of monuments honouring the military along the water.






And there are lots of stories to read about different battles and events.



Us TV's discovered this little canon and made up our own battle story! (We won of course!)



After that we moved away from the water and climbed up a really really big hill!



At the top of the hill there is a tower!



(Whew my little legs were tired from the the hill!)





I wonder if there is a princess up there? I called out but didn't get an answer!



Next we walked to another place where the remains of the fort still stand.  On the way we met some seals!



Here it is!



There was a really big cannon here!



You really can see well from way up here! No one is attacking the city today!





It was starting to get dark so we made our way back down the hill to catch our bus but we missed it! It was okay though, we just sat on the beach and waited for the next one to come.



And we watched all of the lights come on across the water.



It was a really fun day!
