Bowlarama-Slamma! Who knew Sunday night was such an eventful time at the Bayers Road lanes.

A crew of us 5 extreme bowlers (not really) rolled up to the alley at around 5:30pm. It was super busy with families, leagues and friends having some good old…More »

Halifax, NS B3K
Canada

  3/11/2010

It seems peculiar to me to write a review about a vast, fairly empty piece of land. The Common is a large chunk-o-field in the middle of the city, with a few baseball diamonds, a fountain, and some trees thrown in for good measure.

Now that spring is…More »

Cheers often gets lumped in as part and parcel with The Dome. Today, however, I vow to change that. Although they may be connected and owned by the same group, they boast palpably different scenes as well as play altogether different tunes.

So, I've…More »

Candy, CANDY! Sweetness, SWEETNESS! This is the place where dreams come true. A world where gummies and chocolates, gum and suckers, bars and nougat, collide creating a psychedelic colorful candy experience.

When I go into the Freak Lunchbox, I like…More »

I like how cool I feel when I walk up the stairs at Tribeca into the smallish upper bar. I sometimes like to imagine that I'm in a teen flick and I'm the mega-villain girl, you know the one that calls the shots and acts like a jerk all the time. Not…More »

I once lived directly across from this amazing blustery beach and have many fond memories of playing about, wielding sticks and skipping stones.

Lawrencetown Beach is a local treasure. It is a wide open shoreline with pretty spectacular waves and high…More »

4.0 star rating
  3/18/2010

I know Canada Day is not quite on the horizon; however, I think you should plan early by penciling in a trip to Citadel Hill on the 1st if July and I'll tell you why... it's free this day every year!

Last summer, I went into the actual fort after…More »

Canada

3.0 star rating
  3/18/2010

The Putting Edge can be a hilarious time, especially when you're with a group of people in their mid-20s to 30s celebrating a birthday after a bender of a night.

For some reason, I have been to this mini-golf attraction a couple of times; never with…More »

  3/18/2010 First to Review

Williams Lake is my second favorite place to swim within a 10/15 minute proximity (via auto) to downtown Halifax. My first favorite place you ask? Well I'm sorry but I can't spill the beans on that one just yet, I'm simply not ready to part with the…More »

In no time flat, those gorgeous wrought iron gates are going to open and the park will be welcoming all to enter.

I stood peering over the fence yesterday, watching the ducks in the pond and marveling at just how lovely this downtown treasure really…More »

  Update - 6/4/2010

Today was the big reveal; the grand opening after months of renovations. After gathering a crew of mainly native Haligonians, we sauntered in the afternoon sun until we reached this brick landmark.

I was expecting the sun and the moon. I was…More »
