scotia nova

what's a road trip to nova scotia like in the dead of winter? i guess i needed to find out. one two and a half hour drive later, we landed in halifax. what the heck were we going to do? good question. we didn't quite know the answer to that ourselves. after meandering aimlessly for about an hour downtown, we headed over to the casino for a bite to eat (a little random, yes, but apparently andrew helped with the company that did the woodwork in the building). as we sat eating, i looked out at the harbour and saw little orange men clinging to the top of a sub. it's a rather strange sight, i must say. here are a few of the pics.

welcome to nova scotia... i may or may not have seen this sign from the highway and made andrew pull over. it's a good thing that he humors me.

a bunch of canadians on a sub. don't we only own two of these that actually work??

andrew and i at citadel hill. my professor, hayne wai, told me that i had to visit it if i went to halifax, so here we are. it was oh so cold and snowy, but what a beautiful view of the city.

andrew kissing a man in a skirt. i'm not sure if i should be worried.


downtown halifax. i'm beginning to have a slight obsession with picture-taking (especially when there are signs around)

we visited an incredibly ghetto mall in darmouth, ns when we were trying to find a theatre to watch a movie at. this sign was just precious, and i had to take advantage of it. clearly andrew didnt notice that there was an arrow pointing to him. i can't help but laugh whever i see this picture.

on the way back from halifax we stopped to fill up in stewiack, ns which is home of the famous mastadon ridge. clearly it was just about midnight and the park at mastadon ridge was closed, but that didnt stop us from finding a way to take photos. after hopping a large chain link fence, we were able to take a picture with Stu the giant mastadon. We're absolute idiots, that's for sure.

andrew and the flinstone car - i dont even know what to say.
