Day 9

August 21, 1999

Getting up we could now see where we were. It was very late when we had gotten off the ferry and gotten to our campsite, so everyone slept in. After taking a look around, wouldn't you know it? There was a 9 hole golf course on the property. So after we had breakfast in the restaurant, Matt and I played a round. By the time we got back the girls had packed up the RV and we were off again exploring.

 

We parked near the wharf in Charlottetown, and then did the walking tour thing. Being Canadians, to tour Province House and learn more about our history was truly fascinating.

 

Matt found a local bike shop and they let him take a test ride on the new GT I-Drive mountain bike. How a bicycle can cost over $2,000 I will never understand. But when he returned, after finding every pothole and curb to bounce and jump over, the smile on his face told us he had been to heaven and back.

 

From Charlottetown, we headed north to Prince Edward Island National Park and got one of the few campsites on the shore at Cavendish Beach. We plugged in and then made ourselves comfortable.

We spent the evening taking in the local park musical presentations and walking the beach in the dark.
