Back to NYC would be so great!!! Would love to go back to Halifax but could skip St. John....isn't there anywhere else Canadian the ship could dock??
We enjoyed St. John more than Halifax....we hired a taxi for $50 an hour right at the port and got the sweetest "little old man", Gerry, who is a local and has been giving people tours for the last 17 years since ships have been visiting St. John's. There were 6 of us in a minivan. He took us to the coolest places...we originally said 4 hours but we went over 5 hours...he was great and our experience in St. John was so much better than Halfiax (loved Peggy's Cove, though). Loved the caves in St. John. He even stopped at the Harley Davidson shop for our friend who wanted to pick up a t-shirt. He stopped whereever we wanted and also offered to show us his favorite spots. He took us to the reversing falls twice...once at low tide and once when the tide was higher so we could see the difference.
