One of my favorite things to do on a cruise ship is to get up early and capture the sunrise from the ship. These were taken on Wednesday August 1st on our early morning approach to Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, our fourth - and last port of call. On board the Royal Caribbean Adventure of the Seas at the start of our week-long cruise to New England and Canada (July 27th - August 3rd, 2018). The cruise departed from the Cape Liberty Cruise Port in Bayonne, New Jersey and stopped at Portland (Maine), Bar Harbor (Maine), Saint John (New Brunswick) and Halifax (Nova Scotia).

The Halifax Public Gardens were founded by the Nova Scotia Horticultural Society on this site in 1841. It did not consist of more than flower beds and vegetables for its first few decades. It was not until the City of Halifax directed land on the north side of the existing garden to be laid out with flower beds that the Public Gardens undertook a more formal structure. In 1867, the year that Canada was formed as a Dominion, the Public Gardens were opened by the Chief Justice of the province of Nova Scotia.
Halifax Public Gardens are the result of the work and maintenance of numerous talented horticulturists. Among the different species of flowers and plants are fountains, statues, and wrought-iron fences that capture a Victorian feel. There’s plenty of color and aromas throughout the year that are sure to make the experience unforgettable.
