Halifax- The Doorway to the South

Landed all safe and well into Harbor at 4 am this morning. A well lit Harbor, with wonderful protection up the northwestern arm, where we were able to anchor off for a good night (or mornings rest). Resupplying, checking weather and getting in touch with future crew members on the old wifi... fresh fruit and bread, a habit we got into after St Pierre where we were spoilt with leaving presents of Lobsters, crabs, french bread and homemade jams. Lovely sunny day today, so we put everything out and took a mooring closer to the shopping center at the end of the northwestern harbor arm. We will head off at day break tomorrow for a sail to Plymouth, our intended first port of call in the US of A. Good weather forecast and favourable winds for Wens and Thurs that will give us good headway at the Gulf of Maine. Have crew member requests coming in thick and fast but we have a couple of excellent candidates that hopefully will be joining us in Plymouth/New York for the sunseeker run... Wishing all fair winds and following seas...
