We made it to Halifax!

this is the port where our boat will be!
woo hoo
the bridge to cross into Halifax



So this morning when I woke up I felt awful... and got sick... not a good start to the day. After settling down we loaded up and got back on the road for another 8 hour or so drive. I slept through the majority of it since I had a dull headache the whole time.

I went to another country for the first time ever today!!! CANADA! woohoo! It was weird crossing the border but not to bad only took a couple of minutes. The women didn't stamp our passports or anything though! We stopped at a Walmart in Canada.. their bathroom signs say washroom not restroom.. which was interesting.

Our hotel isn't in Halifax but just on the other side of the bridge. So we decided to go check out Halifax and see where the port is that we will board our ship from! Unfortunately our ship wasn't there yet. It was still kinda coo to see where it will be though, it made everything a bit more real, yet it all still felt really surreal. After driving around Halifax a little bit to scope out some things to do tomorrow we went and checked into the hotel. Then grabbed dinner at Taco Bell and called it a night.

Tomorrow is exploring Halifax and meeting up with other SASers for the first time at night!!!!!!!!!!!
