Halifax.. almost on our way ..

After a heavy day travelling, including a missed connection in Toronto, we finally fell into bed at 3.20am local time but 24hours since we left the west country of England. By 9 am, after a few hours sleep, we found ourselves plodding around Halifax in a bleak coastal drizzle but then it all got better.

The sun came out and we moved from office to office, a flurry of rubber stamps released the bikes, almost, into Canada. Flushed with success the young bull suggested we trot back to base for snoozies. Age and wisdom (ed .. ?) prevailed however and soon we were on a ferry for the best ten dollar tour to the Autoport where our trusty steeds were hopefully waiting.

Autoport,  the boat, our bikes are hiding around the corner, security says 'not yet ..'

And indeed they were, shining in the sun but still inaccessable until tomorrow when a completed formality will release them into the environment with us on board and ready to go. Plan is to get them back to the hotel, pack and re-pack and then set off on the following day.
