First half of October 2003 in NCL Norwegian Crown. Kinda small and kinda old, but still quite nice. Not much color in Bar Harbor, a little better in Halifax and Sydney, and spectacular in Quebec. We took a "Quebec Countryside" tour and the Autumnal coloration was as good as I have ever seen, especially on Ile d'Orlean. I live in the Appalachian deciduous forest, and we are quite proud of our fall colors, but Quebec was the best.

Another interesting thing about the cruise was that it started and ended in Baltimore, an easy drive for me. That also meant that the cruise went through both the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal and the Cape Cod Canal. That was cool.

On the way from Quebec to Boston, we experienced a major storm, and it was a rough ride. We were nine hours late getting into Boston. Of the three cruises I have taken, this is the one that I would consider repeating.

We have talked about this cruise a lot...however, it's usually offered in October and DH (being a teacher) is always working and can't take the time off! I think we'll be retired before we ever get to take this cruise!

I would love to take this cruise!! I have been to all the port cities except Halifax, and that is the one I want to see!!

Sue,

Halifax is wonderful! The people are so friendly. You are greeted by a bagpipe band when you arrive and serenaded by a lone bagpiper on the dock when you leave. The city is lovely and we look forward to going back soon.

Your screen name and avatar lead me to think that perhaps you visited Peggy's Cove while in Halifax. Maybe even mailed a post card or two.
