   As I write this, we're getting ready to get off the dock in Halifax. We've been up here to participate in the Africvile reunion and the 25 anniversary of the landing of the Black Loyalists, and have had a great time here over the past 2 weeks or so.    

In a few minutes, we'll turn to and get ready to pick up or pilot, who'll guide us down the channel and out of Halifax Harbor. Next stop is Shelburne, on Nova Scotia's south coast. It's abut 100 miles away, and we have 72 hours to get there. We're looking forward (barring unforeseen circumstances) to a nice leisurely cruise down there, arriving on Friday for a parade of sail into the harbor. If you're in the area, come on down and watch.

Just wanted to let you know that the correct name of your next port of call is SHELBURNE, not Shelbourne, Nova Scotia. You might want to know that Shelburne was featured heavily in the Hollywood movie "The Scarlet Letter", with Demi Moore and Robert Duvall.
Looking forward to future blogs as your voyage progresses....

regards,
Dan Sinclair,
Port Medway, NS
