Heading to Charlottetown.

Sept 29,2019

We showered quickly at 6:00 and tip toed out of the B+B. It was going to be a breezy day on the ferry this morning.  The terminal was bustling already and it looked like today was going to be a full load. 

We both needed breakfast so we immediately went to the cafeteria to get our meal.  This trip would allow me to catch up on the blogs.  I have received several e-mails wishing me a happy birthday and then reminding me that I was behind in my blogs!!  Pressure!!  

The trip was uneventful and we were anxious to get rolling down the road again. As we approached the terminal in Souris, I could see our trailer sitting in the Macdonald’s backyard. I think Debbie was suffering from separation anxiety! We disembarked and drove the 100 meters to the trailer.  All was well with it and we hitched up and started on our next leg of this trip.  

Our plan is to go and find a campground in the Charlottetown area, do some exploring there and then travel to Amherst and Joggins the following day. We wanted to take the coastal road to Charlottetown.  Every single provincial park and campground is now closed and gated shut.  We kind of expected that, so as we approached Charlottetown, we phoned ahead and secured a campsite in the KOA in Charlottetown. We stopped at Wood Islands Lighthouse and took some photos and walked around the area.  The Northumberland Strait was choppy and the windy was bitterly cold.

We checked into the KOA around 5:00 and set up for the night. The wind had stopped and the evening was pleasant so we walked along the beach and did some beach combing.  Debbie whipped up a great spaghetti dinner and I posted several blogs (to keep those impatient readers off my back!) and then we went to bed.
