Cycling trip to PEI

Long drive from Toronto to Notre Dame du Portage but what a spot on the St. Lawrence.

Feet up: sunset at Auberge Sur Mer before freshly caught halibut and tuna dinners

Next morning along the St Lawrence before cutting down to New Brunswick
Free small ferry from Gagetown to our B&B in “the Narrows” of St. John River
Morning view from our window at Norwood on the Washademoak
Gorgeous turn of the century estate
Heading south east in New Brunswick towards bridge to Prince Edward Island
Someone has a message and great sense of humour
A closer look
Lunch spot; ax provided
My first time crossing to PEI without having to take a ferry. Conferation Bridge
Arrive in Charlottetown to brilliant sunshine
Heritage streets charm
St Dunstan’s Basilica is stunning
Detail speaks for itself
Irish pub The Old Triangle, night before we start our bike trip. Musicians practising upstairs.

Next morning after a hearty breakfast and some tinkering of bikes we start our Island tour on the Confereration Trail.

The cyclists
The  talented PEI family The Ross’ are playing at the Playhouse: we take in a performance that takes one the character of a kaylee: singing, dancing and storytelling
Mom of group and youngest daughter

We have a rather modest starting day of about 35 kilometers – Charlottetown to Victoria.

Typical scenary
Abundant fresh vegetables
Arriving at the harbour at Victoria
First things first: a local brew
Our darling bnb
A walk around this artsy fishing village brings us here
Mom of family with youngest daughter. Amazing performers

The evening ends for Barry and I returning from the playhouse to a darkened house and locked door. It takes some time to wake the dogs who wake the owners!

Love slow travel, following paths less trodden where possible. Meeting locals. Sharing.
