Did you sail anywhere? Clearly, you did not take the 3 hour tour, what with its inherent dangers and all.

In Canadian time it’s only 2hrs 15min

Another nice morning shave. With six people in the house and four of them ladies, I am glad that I am the early riser so I am not rushed when taking a relaxing shave.

Time to enjoy some coffee and oatmeal and settle into some reading before the day’s adventures begin.

Hope it’s a great day for ya Sam!

He’s surrounded by women. Of course it is. (Or it’s hell)

You certainly live on the edge, Sam! Enjoy your day.

Another exciting* morning with an early shave, followed by coffee and pre-fab oatmeal.

Excuse me sir……but the deets are barren - even for you my frozen friend of the North

I am posting from my iFoney and totally hate doing so. My other option was just to post a paragraph when I get back home.

No worries - we’ve been hanging out at your “house” here on your journal - we’ll tidy up at the end

pre-fab

Beatles reference?

Leftover pizza is fine.

Leftover pizza is fine.

Just pick the bugs off of it and you'll be fine.

It’s a hard life …

this is where you're staying?

 

[woodpusher]

Yup, at my niece’s place about 30 mins from Lunenburg.

Very nice.

I think your definition of exciting is different than mine. But of course if I had that kind of breakfast...my morning would be interesting.

 

[woodpusher]

@dangerousdon , true excitement this morning as my shave was interrupted by one of the ladies needing to boot me out of the bathroom for a few minutes. Other than that, it was a normal meh-ilcious morning shave followed by oatmeal and coffee.

If all goes according to plan, we should be visiting Peggy’s Cove this morning and then a quick jaunt into Halifax to stroll on the pier and treat the ladies to Cows ice cream.

Have a great day.
