Day 9 - PEI!!!!

Today we traveled from Fundy to Twin Shores campground (on the Gulf Side of PEI - ½ hour from Cavendish). We stopped before crossing the bridge for lunch, and walked around the interpretive center there...which we hoped would have info on building the bridge...but didn't...but other interesting things. Our campground is very different from Fundy. Our site is very open, but literally steps across the dunes from the ocean!!! The park is geared for families and has lots of activities for the kids...as if sea, sand and waves are not enough! We've already swam, body surfed, beach combed, played ball hockey, and were only 2 numbers away from winning the jackpot in Chocolate Bar Bingo...grand prize would have been 83 chocolate bars...think I'm glad we didn't win. Tonight the waves will definitely lull us to sleep...and I haven't heard a fog horn yet!

Day 6-8 Catching up

MANY up's and down's at Fundy. After our bike tour, we decided that hiking would have to do in these hills. We went on several, through the forest and to the beach, at high and low tide. We walked around Alma and tasted the seafood and sticky buns. Seafood – excellent; Sticky buns – will have to send them my recipe... We went to Hopewell Rocks and got a mud pedicure. We packed up Monday morning, thinking we could easily stay longer, but PEI is calling, and the kids are ready for sandy beaches! Nothing but SUN!

Day 6 - On to Fundy

Today we woke to peasoup fog, and as we started to pack up it began to pour. THIS is the East Coast I remember from our trip as a child (but thankful we haven't experienced much of yet) It soon let up and we were on the road without being totally soaked, and the rest of the day was glorious sun. We followed the advice of others and stopped just outside of Pennfield at a Blueberry stand. VERY good advice!!! Blueberry pie, muffins, ice cream, shortcake, and just plain ol' fresh from the field. Nummmmo! Hope our trip home brings us there again. We arrived at Fundy National Park at 3:30, suppered, biked, took at little tour of Alma, watched the tide come in...literally sat and watched a rock get covered by water...amazing!
