So, Dallas and I started off the vacation with the all night flight from Salt Lake to New York City on JetBlue Airlines. Everytime I take this flight I vow I will never take the flight again. It is like no sleep for 36 hours. We met up with our friend John in NYC then Dallas and I took a pedicab through Central Park. We had never really seen the whole park and I have to say it was beautiful.
Our first stop was Boston. It was much different than I expected and the amount of history there made me giddy. I love history! We visited all the usual sites while we walked the Freedom Trail. We even stumbled up the Cheers Bar from the television show.
Portland, Maine was my favorite place. Small, quaint and so beautiful. This is a famous light house but I forgot the name. We saw like 5 of them right in the harbor.
The following day we sailed in to St. John, New Brunswich in Canada. Not a lot there. Fundy Bay with the Reversing Falls is the big draw. Unfortunately we hit it right at calm time. Nice town with an interesting church that looked impressive in the fog. I really liked the fog when we were on the ship. You could here all the ships in the area blowing their horns to alert each other.
Halifax, Nova Sotia was very interesting and bigger than I expected. The Fairview Cemetary was a nice bus ride away with a ride through the suburbs. Again, not what I expected. The Titanic graves were located in the middle of the cemetary in the middle of Halifax suburbia. Something really cool was that as we left Halifax they had Scottish Pipers playing.
We had an amazing vacation and I saw things I have always wanted to see and they were unlike anything I have seen before.
