14 Sept 2014: Halifax
Vanoggend in Halifax aangekom maar was mistig en reenerig
toe ons aar in die hawe en toe, onder die mis.Hawe waar ons gedok is lyk maar
soos n hawe gebied, nie te mooi nie,net hyskrane en geroesde pype!!! Het darem
al die rooi en pienk busse op n afstand gesien.Hulle gebruik die busses om die
passasiers na die waterfront gedeelte aan
te ry.Dit was n belewenis want die busse kom uit negentien toet!!
Het foto geneem om te wys.Lyk vir my soos die busse wat
hulle in Port Elizabeth gehad het in my kinder jare,dubbel verdieping,bloed
rooi en pienkes.Die belangrikste hulle werk nog en doen wat hulle moet,ook n
vroutjie wat aan jou verduidelik hoe dinge werk ens,baie oulik en
georganiseerd.
Beste nuus van die dag, waterfront het free wi-fi!!!! So ek
kon darem gister se goed op blog sit ,het net eers gesukkel om my word goed
gecopy en gepaste te kry! More is ons op die see en die volgende 3 plekke wat
ons gaan besoek, gaan ons weer die tender bote gebruik, so weet glad nie hoe
dit gaan wees nie
Vir die wat nie weet nie, tender bote is as die skip nie in
n hawe kan dok nie want daar is nie groot genoeg hawe vir die skip nie ,dan
gooi hy anker uit en ons word aangery van die skip,ek geniet dit nogal want is
weer iets anders.
Was heel eerste by n Farmers Market wat lekker vars goed
verkoop het en daarna weer deur n klomp stalletjies geloop ,lyk my hierso is n
MOOSE koning, verskeie artikels met moose woorde op of peaks, moose ore, noem
maar op,een winkel se naam COOL AS A MOOSE!!Daarna al langs die waterfront
gestap en verby verskeie museums en intressante plekke.Wil dalk volgende keer
by die Titanic Museum inloer,sal maar sien.Hulle se die eerste boot wat na die noodsein na die Titanic gestuur is ,het
van Halifax geseil.
Gaan gelukkig nog 3 keer hier aankom voor ek afklim so mens
het genoeg tyd om net eers te kyk voor jy besluit wat jy alles wil sien en
doen.Nou ja tot volgende keer mooi bly.
15 Sept 2014: @ SEA
Today I was back in the gym after being very
lazy,versagtende omstandighede!!!! When we get to a port I am off like a shot!!
Rugsak op die rug en daar gaan ek, no time to waste,places to go and people to
see!!! Such a privilege very aware of
this blessing in my life.
At breakfast had the guy that crows like a cock again and
had a whole show going, had us in fits of laughter, first he crows then one of
the chefs answers to his gekraaiery!! Also with a gekraaiery!! Then he says,
come back at 2 there is going to be a cock fight. Someone on my turf, not long
before he is going to be fiddling with my hens!! Then he asks everyone when a
crew member passes him, does this guy look like me??? When we all say no, his
chirp, I told his mother this is not my chick!! The world needs more people
like him, always has a smile on his face.
Also went to Jasons
port and shopping talk this morning. I just love this guy he comes from
Zim and is so whitty and skerp!! Praat dat dit bars en woorde hou net nie op
nie.Beslis in die regte posisie,sal enige ding aan jou verkoop, baie baie
goed.He tells you about the different shops there are in the port we visit, and
where the best buys are. You get a map, so you have a bit of back round before
you get to the port. Charlottetown is on Prins Eduard Island, and has 5 shops
we can visit. Quebec City he says is amazing has a European feel to it, so
really looking forward to go wandering in this beautiful city. Tomorrow it is
Charlottetown.
After lunch I went to watch the Irish Folksong Show for a
while and really enjoyed it. He tells stories and sings and before you know you
are singing along or doing a jiggle. Seems the Irish like there beer!! And then
after to many pints at the pub, that lovely wife is waiting for you when you
walk through the front door at home and she ain’t so nice after seeing you!!!
Also told us about a guy talking in his sleep one night
after too many pints of beer and talking about Camilla, when his wife asked who
Camilla was the next morning he had to think quickly and said it was a horse he
bet on, when he got home that afternoon all his belongings were lying on the
grass, so he asked and what on earth is going on here? All she said :YOUR
HORSE, CAMILLA phoned!!!!
Brilliant ,so lekker gelag, hulle lyk na sulke lekker
mense.Nou ja dis al vir die dag,tot more.
