The colorful Victorian houses, are homes to art galleries, gift stores, restaurants and businesses of all kinds.

| Restaurants along the wharf on Bluenose Drive |
 |
| The waterfront is vibrant with ships coming and going. The wharf is lined with these beautiful red buildings. A waterfront museum and restaurant. |
 |
| Lunenburg is home to the Bluenose ll., an exact replica of the Bluenose: Queen of the Atlantic. The original Bluenose was so grand she has adorned the Canadian dime for nearly 80 years. |
 |
| We had hoped for a sail on this ship, but without knowing when we would get here it was impossible to book in advance and she is booked solid until end of August. We had even hoped for maybe a last minute no-show, but that didn't happen. |
 |
| All Aboard! We sailed on the Eastern Star. As you can see, a much smaller sailing vessel. There were 9 of us and it was a 'hands on' sail. So anyone could help with the sails or steering.We had a great time and a great sail.... thank you to our Skipper Merrill and his crew member Phil. |

| Michel took this picture from the nose of the ship. A nice ship, lots of room to move about. Of course if there were 30 on board, as there sometimes is, it would a lot more crowded! |
