Happy Thursday friends! I hope that your week is going well! Today I am excited to share with y'all a little bit about our excursion in Halifax and Peggy's Cove while on our cruise with Holland America. We arrived in Halifax on the day after we spent time in the Port of Sydney (you can read about it HERE) and our time in Baddeck (which you can read about HERE)! We were so excited for this adventure and this excursion because my mom really wanted to see Peggy's Cove and Peggy's Cove lighthouse.
If you have been around the blog for a while you may remember that I visited Peggy's Cove and Peggy's Cove Lighthouse in 2017 while on a road trip through New England, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia (you can read more about it HERE!). After talking so much about this area to my mom over the years, it was incredibly special to be back. My mom was so excited about this part of our cruise stop so this made everything even more special!
When I visited Peggy's Cove in 2017 I visited in the beginning of October and it was a beautiful blue and sunny day and I was wondering what it would look like to visit with the gray skies. Y'all it was so pretty and stunning and I was so glad that my mom got to see it like this. I felt in some ways it added a beauty that was really unique because of the gray skies. Doesn't it look how you imagine lighthouses to look against the ocean in many ways? *smiles*
One note that I will say for those that are curious is that the time of year we visited on the cruise (the second week of August) was a lot more crowded than our time visiting in October. I share that only to say that New England/Canada cruises are still happening in later months on Holland America so if this is something that is a consideration for you check out a later cruise.
Thank you so much for stopping by and taking the time to read today! Please let me know if you have any questions about Peggy's Cover or Peggy's Cove Lighthouse or our cruise with Holland America! It was simply lovely! You can read about all of our adventures on our cruise with Holland America by clicking HERE! Happy Thursday friends!
