25 June: The Departure through Halifax
We arrived in Shad Bay in the early afteroon. I don't know why we
got this picture of Rhi 
and this one of Brad, 
but
we did. We had a great afternoon, including a tour 
conducted by Jif 
of the Wyatt 
garden, which 
is far ahead
of the one on 
the Ridge.
We also got Jif to model 
the wonderful bead vest that K8 made 
and which we gave her for her birthday. After dinner we had an amazingly
frustrating trip to the airport, including a long traffic jam by the fairgrounds.
Eventually, though, we did make the airport, only to discover that the
flight was five (count 'em, five) hours late. Instead of leaving at 7:30,
which we'd planned on, it was now scheduled to start boarding about 11:30.
So, after some discussion, we all repaired to the bar, where it seemed
reasonable to buy one 
large
(you see by large they mean L A R G E) beer rather than 
a couple of small ones. We discovered that even the Shirley Temples were,
shall we say 
, Brobdingnagian.
We sat around and talked, Jif gave the girls some travelers' cheques, 
and 
eventually we said goodbye
at security and we were off.
