Halifax & Peggy’s Cove – Nova Scotia

Will we go to Halifax? Will we not go to Halifax? That was the question on our trip to the Canadian Atlantic Provinces. Out-of-control wildfires near Halifax forced the evacuation of 16,000 people in the weeks before our trip. 

Fortunately, cooler weather and rain quelched the fires by the time we arrived in Canada. However, we had already rearranged our itinerary twice (and almost canceled the entire trip). If we drove the Cabot Trail in one day, we could spend a good portion of a day in Halifax and Peggy’s Cove. We were so close it would be ridiculous not to visit. After all, Halifax isn’t on the beaten path as many US carriers no longer fly to the airport.
