It's too bad this little trip was by car, but the weather wasn't great (wet) so it's just as well I suppose. In spite of the weather we had a good time and stayed at a nice hotel and were pampered a bit.
The island province of P.E.I. is now connected to the mainland by a 13 km (8 mile) bridge that opened in 1997, ending decades of waiting in line for ferry service.
This is the Confederation Bridge......
.....and a shot from the air.
On Sunday the weather cleared for a few hours so we rode over to the national park to see the sand dunes along the beach. In spite of the many signs to not feed the wild animals this "foxy" fellow walked right up to the car and waited for a handout. It was obvious he had already been spoiled.
We took a walk along the dunes and came upon a small lake with hundreds of Canada geese resting on their way south. We watched as groups took flight.
It was nothing very exciting, but it was a change to get away.
Oh yes.....BTW.....I picked up my local drivers license while I was there. You need to be legal and do as the locals do
