Hello from Halifax.

Fair Jeanne found her berth not far from H.M.C.S. SACKVILLE, near the Maritime Museum, and got settled in for the decktours and other goings on. The Tall Ships Nova Scotia 2009 team has all sorts of activities organized not the least of which is tours of other ships and tours around town. They've also got a crews parade coming up as well as a soccer tournament. I don't think we'll be in that one... the team from Brazil and Uruguay will probably be full of ringers. That or maybe the ships from Europe will triumph. (They all splay soccer and we don't.)

Look at that! I managed to upload a picture of Fair Jeanne coming along side. Lots of activity with those fenders!

Well deck tours are in full swing. The crowds are steady and not overwhelming. Since it is overcast and a bit breezy it is a bit cool down here by the water, but it's great for walking around, seeing the other ships, meeting old friends and making new ones. Halifax, Nova Scotia, is a great place to be this weekend!
