Cape Breton - PEI

On just about every touristy map based on this area, they all show this world famous drive along the coast. This is exactly what we are about to go and explore.
 






After checking out quite a few amazing lookouts along the coast. We turned around a corner to see this. 

A Ski hill in the middle of nowhere. 3 Lifts all together











Our amazing Van.
Still going strong

Not far from our accommodation we were lucky enough to spot our first Moose





Take a close look. This beach still has snow on it











Arriving at PEI
We have only read about this bridge, the link between PEI and the mainland, It takes about 20 minutes to cross and costs about $44 to leave the island from the other side.




 

 PEI is mostly made up of farms interlinking with funky cross roads with poor signage. We learn't the hard way trying to follow 2 different maps and interpret road signs. All in all i think we only managed 2 laps of the main section on this island. We found Charlotte town to be nothing interesting, Just another town in the middle of nowhere. On the other hand this place is very well known for the Anna Green Gables books.









We took a quick walk around this site, not knowing anything about where we were or what the story was all about. This place looked very neat.

All these Updates - What did we just do?


Next Mission: to find out how to get off this Island


  



Welcome to Quebec





How bad is your french?


An interesting Bridge crossing into Quebec City.











If you have ever wanted the chance to challenge your navigational skills in a different language, this is the place. Every road starts with the same few words, Rue = Road

Ill update again after we find out accommodation and check in Grandee Alley something
