Atlantic Trap and Gill

Friday evening of last weekend Mike and I walked to a restaurant near our condo (Milestones) and had a tasty dinner. This restaurant is known for it's fruity Martinis and I have to say they are scrumptious.

Saturday was absolutely gorgeous. It was sunny and there was a high of 15 degrees. Mike and I walked the dogs on the seawall and took in the sun. I was wearing capris joggers, a long-sleeved shirt and sandals and Michael quickly shed his hat, gloves and jacket.

People were playing tennis and basketball, skateboarding and overall enjoying the gorgeous weather.

After our walk, I did some shopping and then met up with friends at "The Atlantic Trap and Gill". This pub is about 5 minutes from our place and is a Maritime bar. NB, NFLD, NS, PEI and Acadien flags adorn the walls and a live band plays all the well known maritime tunes from Old Black Rum to Barrett's Privateers.
They serve PEI mussels and everyone claps, stomps and chants to the music.

Best of all you can get Moosehead, Alpine and Keiths.
While in Fredericton, the maritime pubs become tiresome, (Loud, same old music and plain food), but it was nice to get a little taste of home. I think I could go to this place every 6 months or so and get my fill ;)















For Valentine's Day I received a very nice care package from home. All kinds of goodies and these very cute pjs. Thanks Mom!

This weekend is the Chinese New Year. I plan on going to China town and taking some pics.

Cheers,

Andrea
