We arrived to Halifax on our cruise, but soon my dad and I caught a bus for our excursion to Peggy's Cove. The bus was packed and the weather placed us in a cloud. We arrived to the sleepy little fishing village to find it draped in a cloud of fog. This made us feel like we were truly isolated with nothing around but fishermen making a living at sea.

Soon, however the fog gave way to the hordes of tourists. We were told that the population here is only about 75 people in the winter, however during the summer there are up to 500 people here each day. Although picturesque, There's little to see, other than the iconic lighthouse, which symbolizes the town.
