P E I

Yes, we have NO pictures.  !!     The internet is soooo slow that I tried to download one picture and after 20 minutes, it was still grinding away.  

We left Nova Scotia yesterday after several drizzly foggy days spent being kind of lazy.   That area is lovely, scenic, great weather most of the time and has very friendly people.   Real estate prices are much higher than up at Cape Breton and it has a very seasonal crowd.    The info said that the area was popular with Haligonians (Halifax) and Americans for their summer homes and lovely sail boats.

We had about a 6 hour drive north to Prince Edward Island.    Grey skies made for a pleasant drive and we shared the burden.....of course, I get the busy traffic, the narrow roads and the loooooooonnnnnng bridge.   He gets the multi-lane roads and maneuvering in and out of campgrounds.    To get to PEI from the mainland is a beautiful 8 mi bridge (2 lane).....and then comes the rolling hills and cultivated fields of many colors.   Potatoes grow everywhere.    The British Isles heritage is obvious and I feel right at home (My grandparents were from Cornwall).     We are at New Glasgow Highlands CG snuggled into a leafy campsite.    There is no satellite but we have a couple of Canadian TV stations and spotty wifi.   Dean and Diane are a day behind us, having to wait for a UPS pkg.   And, we're also being stalked by Ron and Cay.   Ron worked with Paul and we met them in Pa and attended their lovely wedding at Quiet Valley, a working farm from the 1800's.   Anyway, they are in a smaller RV which enables them to get close up and personal to many areas.....they started in Quebec, moved on to Labrador, down to Newfoundland, over to Cape Breton to join us and then to the Peggy's Cove area .....we have had some good times around the campfires.     We expect that they will find us again in the next week.!!

So, I'm off to take more pictures of this pretty place and hopefully, one of these days, I'll be able to post them.
