Yep, agreed. Airfare to Nova Scotia isn't cheap, HST is a tax gouge,
booze is insane priced, cold as hell this time of year.

Costa Rica is cheaper, warmer and more things to do.

Yesterday it was overcast and chilly here.
On my way back from running our Springer at the park, I drove by two
large ocean cruise ships. Comical to see all those 'mericans
shivering in their hoodies while wrapping their arms around
themselves. The locals were walking along in T-shirts.

I'm sure that's all true but I have this notion that the proper way to
get to an island is on a boat, preferably your own boat. I have
visited a number of different islands on cruise ships and have always
found the experience somewhat dissatisfying, even when I liked the
place. The problem is partly scheduling. Typically the cruise ship
arrives early morning and departs before sunset. There is no
opportunity to enjoy a dinner a shore or appreciate the night life.
You are also limited in choice of excursions and have to ensure that
you are back at the dock before departure.

Yes, and someplace easier to get to.


I'm going to start a new thread on favorite islands. Please don't
trash it - islands really don't care about religion, politics or
personalities.


"Easier to get to"??
Every year almost a quarter million 'mericans find their way up here
on cruise ships.
There are direct flights into Halifax from New York daily. *What could
be easier than that?

On the north shore of Nova Scotia they claim that the water is the

If you are partial to islands... you can't do any better than this!

Yes you can. Someplace warm comes to mind.

Yes, and someplace easier to get to.


I'm going to start a new thread on favorite islands. Please don't
trash it - islands really don't care about religion, politics or
personalities.


"Easier to get to"??
Every year almost a quarter million 'mericans find their way up here
on cruise ships.
There are direct flights into Halifax from New York daily. What could
be easier than that?


Halifax is a beautiful island?????- Hide quoted text -

Kevin, the old city of Halifax is a peninsula, *These days HRM.. or
Halifax Regional Municipality is just one big area.


A peninsula isn't an island, dip****. YOU stated how easy it was to get
to Halifax when people were talking about the difficulty of getting to
an ISLAND. What a moron!- Hide quoted text -

Duh!
Once you get here, it's a 3 hour drive to Cape Breton.
If you're not particular... we have lovely islands right out in the
harbour. Even a Georgia cracker like you couldn't miss them.


Hey, idiot, do you really, honestly think I live in Georgia? Are you
that stupid?

Yep, agreed. Airfare to Nova Scotia isn't cheap, HST is a tax gouge,
booze is insane priced, cold as hell this time of year.

Costa Rica is cheaper, warmer and more things to do.

So in the hole, why do we insanely want more debt?

"Cold as hell this time of year"??
When was the last time you were here? 70F today.

Weather is too unpredictable up there in the tundra. 70 today could be
30 tomorrow.- Hide quoted text -

I thought you weren't in the south, Kevin.

He's really a cipher, a zero, a brainless twit. He's perfectly matched
to his best buddy and alter ego here. Between the two of them, they
couldn't peel an orange without help. Betcha $500!

I'd bet $500 you're absolutely right.



Hey! We can't both be on the same side of the bet!


Doesn't matter, you'll both pussy out, being the Cowardly Duo.
