Or as the locals call it, Nova Scotia!

We got to our hotel room, and you'd think that after the mammoth flight I would gone straight to sleep. Well I would have, if I didn't have 60 CHANNELS OF TV! Yeah baby! I channel surfed until I fell asleep with the remote still in my hand.

The next morning, we got up and went to Wal-Mart to get some supplies for our road trip, which included amongst other things another small suitcase for some of the stuff we have accumulated. We have seen a lot of 'biggest things' on this trip, and as Wal Mart is another. It is enormous. Just imagine your average size Big W, Coles and Target all put together and you get an idea.

Once we had the Pontiac loaded, we headed of to explore Halifax for the afternoon. Halifax is a very quaint, pretty city se upon quite a large harbour. We spent most of the afternoon wandering downthe harbour front, and there are a few things that rate a mention.

The first thing is we came across a shop called 'Rum Runners'. As you canimagine, we entered thisshop excitedly, but it turned out that they didn't actually sell rum, but rum cake. Absolutely deeelish! A Bundy flavoured cinammon cake is probably the best description I can come up with. We bought a big one in a tin to take away, but sadly there is now none left.

The second mention goes to Mountain Equipment Co-op. This placeis camping gear Nirvana! An enourmous shop over two levels, with prices about half of equivalent gear in Australia.

The third and final mention goes to McDonalds. Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island are famous for seafood, you can buy it just about everywhere (we went to a supermarket that had a lobster tank!) Not to be outdone, McDonald's has a McLobster on the menu! I kid you not! I didn't try one so I can't give you a report, after all there is way to much fresh seafood around to be going to Mc Donalds!
