Wonderful PEI

PEI did not disappoint us.  What a wonderful place but we will have to come back again to see everything.  We are already talking about coming for a month next time and spending a week in the different areas of the island.  There just isn't enough time ...


Almost didn't make it on the ferry...we were the last RV to get on and they squeezed one small car after us.


Lots of farmland and fields are growing.

Cape Bear - my new activity is climbing to the top of every lighthouse I can find.

Views from the lighthouse


And never pass up on a community lobster dinner.  This one was at Murray River - lobster or ham dinner (eat in or take out) and strawberry shortcake for dessert.  It was a real treat.



Visiting my friend Rhoda at her church, Zion Presbyterian Church in Charlottetown was a highlight for us and lunch with Rhoda and Ken.



This is a neat sculpture not far from the church - memorial passing of the torch "lest we forget".


The deportation cross at Port Amherst and the walk down to the lighthouse.





So glad we made it to Argyle Shores Provincial Park.
What a great place to stop for dinner.



And what a great way to finish off our evening - good 'ole time Maritime music at a Ceilidh with Tip-er-back.  There motto is: Until next time grab a jar of life, fill it with music and tip er back ...




Some sculptures at Montague



Beautiful river scene


From the bridge - two great places to stop on either side of the bridge. One side has an artisan shop and other stores.  On the other side is the info building and park area.


Panmure Island Lighthouse and yes, I climbed to the top.


The final set of stairs to the top.


The light and view from the top.


Summerside - this lighthouse was actually an artisan shop but I climbed it anyway.



View of a lot of fun on a hot summer day - lots of squats from here as we ate our lunch.


Beautiful view of French River on our way home.

And on our last night here, we had to go to another Ceilidh.  This one was just down the road from where we were staying.  Dunes n'Tunes - A Seaside Ceilidh at Brackley Beach Community Centre every Tuesday evening if you happen to be in the area.

Off to NB now to visit family for a few days before heading home ...

Until next time ... enjoy the day you're given and make wonderful memories with those around you.
