    The games are very good as is the entertainment and other ancillary activity. You might also consider adding the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo in Halifax, running Jun 26 - Jul 6; an excellent show, NS tourism can also provide a list of all the local concerts and ceilidhs for your planned trip timings. If you're a golfer, check out Cabot links and Cabot Cliffs in Inverness.

    Thank you so much for the information. My Grandfather an ancestors came from Maryadole, St. Andrews, Antigonish. We are the MacDonald (McBride) clan, I understand my family ancestors are know in NS as Pioneers. Guess that is a very distinctive title. I hope to do more family research as they arrive in 1690, and were part of the St. Andrews Catholic Church Parish. As I stated in my original post, my grandfather, uncle and father use to attend the games and loved it. Good info about the Halifax event, I will look into that too....Thanks.
