Glen Margaret Bay Region & Peggy's Cove

We are in a fantastic area just outside of Halifax Nova Scotia, it is called Glen Margaret and is a few kilometers (35) from Peggy's Cove. We have been into Halifax twice in the two days we have been here but we have not done any touristy things because we found the casino and we seem to end up there. We did go to Peggy's Cove today and saw the memorial to the Swiss Air Disaster. It is a beautiful place and the memorial is very moving to see. The coast line here is as I imagined it would be, I love it here. The village of Peggy's Cove was beautiful, I did not know it had a population of only 40! Some men were packing Mackerel into tubs with ice and then they loaded the tubs into a reefer truck. As the truck drove out of town it was leaking brownish water, it smelled very strong of fish...yuk!
