Adventure Begins

Day 1 has certainly been a day oof travel. Driving to the city at 9 o'clock in the morning. Lots of traffic and navigating to the ferry docks. The crossing takes maybe 3 minutes as you sit in the car. Just the one level. Parked on the island for the convenience. Airport lounge very comfortable with free beverages and comfortable seating. Interesting experience when we boarded up the staircase like we used to do @ Pearson. Our seats were almost @ the back and as we approached I could see 2 people already sitting in our seats. I had the boarding pass and indicated that was our seats. They replied their tickets showed the same numbers. The major difference was they were on the wrong plane. Everyone stayed in a good humour as we played musical chairs trying to let new passengers on and trying to jockey the seats. Just a little unnerving realizing this nice couple had passed 2 different checkpoints. Everything went smoothly after that We had a half hour stop in Montreal and then arrived in Halifax late afternoon. Airport is about 45 min from the city but has a metro bus for 3.25 per person that takes you right downtown. Alternative was 60.00 for a taxi. Got settled in hotel had something to eat. Enough for one day. Weather sunshine and warm.
