One Hundred Thousand Welcomes!

The official welcome of Nova Scotia is "Ciad Mile Failte," Gaelic for "One Hundred Thousand Welcomes!"

We feel welcomed in this beautiful, coastal city! And to commemorate this new beginning, I have changed up my blog for the first time since I started it in 2005!

I combed the internet for the perfect description of our new city, and decided on this one from NovaScotia.com:
For more than 250 years visitors to this city have been falling in love with Halifax. The province’s capital, Halifax combines the international essence of a major port city and naval base, with the youthful vibe of a university town, and the culture and heritage of one of Canada’s most historic communities.
After 3 weeks on the road, it's good to be home.

What does the word, "home," conjure up for you?
