Coastal Inn Dartmouth

It's been a nice stay at this hotel. We had to stay here for the past two weeks, preparing my car, our home, and getting ready for school and work.
This place is perfect for anyone who has an extended stay. The suite we booked had a kitchenette which cut down on our costs. Plus they have free breakfast.
The staff are great, and it feels a bit like a home away from home.

Leena says its good

We went to the Vietnamese/Chinese restaurant we had ordered from earlier in the week as the food was really good.

Stopped off for lunch at a small general store and restaurant in Maitland, Nova Scotia. Fish and chips, cheeseburgers, onion rings and I ordered a club sandwich

Having gotten tired of take out, we've also been able to cook some foods in our hotel which has a kitchenette. I boiled some potatoes, turnip, steamed some Brussels sprouts and got some nice spices to put on some pork chops I pan fried.

Pork chops in the pan.

This was at Michaels Cafe in Middle Musquodoboit, Nova Scotia. We had Poutine, cheeseburgers, Garlic toast and I had one of the best Lasagnas in a long time! The owner is a Lebanese immigrant to Canada and has made a great place to eat in the village I went to high school in.

The Chinese/Vietnamese place I had ordered some food from on the first night we stayed at in Dartmouth. 

Dollar Lake Provincial Park, Halifax County, Nova Scotia

I took my family to my favorite beach. Dollar Lake was a park developed by the government of Nova Scotia in the 1990s. My mum used to take my sister and I swimming here. I took my older children here back in the early 2000s and finally had the chance to take my little ones.

Greco's Pizza, a Maritime local pizza chain. Had a medium 3 topping pizza and garlic fingers.

This was a dessert my mother used to make. It must be something that is close to many Maritimer's hearts.
