About 30 miles from Halifax is a little fishing village called "Peggy's Cove". It is situated on a very bleak piece of coastline and the locals have made up for this by painting their houses and boats in the brightest of colours. These fishermen have been handing their boats and houses down through generations..

And we were able to have a good cup of espresso at the same time!!
