Day 7 (last day) South Shore

Today we took a day trip from Halifax to Lunenburg, and then returned via the Lighthouse Route, along the South Shore (Atlantic Ocean).


Lunenburg

Starting off on a horse-drawn carriage tour of Lunenburg, a UNESCO Word Heritage Site. The town remains to this day laid out in the grid the British planned for the community in 1753.


Street Sign: there were various species of fish depicted in these signs all over town.
