The only one I could attend due to work and family commitments was the tour of George's Island. The island is a drumlin, the same as Citadel Hill. The island was a fortified site from 1749-1945.
We went with a member of my other regiment, the 84th, Alistar Hamilton as he was in the unit for 7 years.
As it was family friendly, I also took my wife and children.

inside one of the cannopiers in the ditch.

Parks Canada is hoping to eventually have the site open to the public but it will take several more restoration projects to allow for regular access
with the brush, it's easy to mistake how deep the ditch would be
