Halfway around PEI

While I’m connected, let’s finish with the east coast of New Brunswick and start around Prince Edward Island

Probably a bait car


Horse Power

For those of you who were worried about my cooking, We had a remedial Tea in Victoria by the Sea

While parking in Montague, EsDora leaned right, the power pole leaned left and the awning got a big smudge. We nearly made off with a complimentary hanging basket.

Early one morning at Red Point.

Original Radio Equipment from the Originator of Radio. Stored at the East Cape Lighthouse. Alledged to have received the first SOS ever transmitted from some ship called the Titanic.... but then so were the radios we saw in other lighthouses.


Elmira, near the eastern most point in PEI has a rail museum. Like all Heritage Rail groups, they operate a Speeder to amuse the public. I provided greetings from the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society (and was given an icecream cone). Fair trade on a hot day. 

At the Greenwich portion of PEI National Park along the North Shore, even the picnic shelters are solar powered.

Carolyn came up with a mermaid’s purse otherwise known as a shark’s egg sac while combing Brackley Beach.

Up close and personal with Jacques Cartier who started his own Canada by Degrees in 1534 right where EsDora was parked in Jack Carter Provincial Park. Jacques was wearing a doublet and I was wearing a singlet.

There is a lot of fuss in PEI about a certain Anne of Green Gables. I saw the house. There are no gables. However, the touristy trade Raspberry Cordial is WONDERFUL. And it can be mixed with rum...

Cordially,

Terry & Carolyn
