Kouchibouguac National Park

We drove from Linkletter PP in PEI, along as much of the remaining North Cape Route that we could, until road construction encouraged us to detour inland. 

A mild tailwind wind, nudged us back over the Confederation Bridge.

Along the Way to There ...

... I was able to continue my search for the ' World's Best Seafood Chowder '. This latest, tasty offering was from the Bayou Pub and Eatery in Shediac.

PEI North Cape Coastal Drive

Strong winds, horizontal rain and areas of fog moved onto the island for several days. 

_______________

Probably the remnants of the several hurricanes moving  north from the Caribbean. We decided to change our plans to drive the complete North Cape Coastal Route. We turned south a few kilometres north of Jaques Cartier PP and followed the Trans Canada through the middle of the island to Summerside. From there, it's only a short drive to Confederation Bridge.

 But we did have some decent weather ...

Photos ... one of the many working oyster farms we have/and continue to drive by ... and, just one more of the countless, freshly painted churches we stopped to admire, then more pretty homes and more pretty properties ... next, one of several Lucy Maud Montgomery residences: (this ONE features - a glass canopy zoo containing a number of dead birds displayed on a branch, the homes kitchen pantry, the homes back-shed room, a typical bedroom)

Chignecto to Cavendish

FUNDY NATIONAL PARK

Following the Bay of Fundy, east from River Beach PP to Fundy NP; is a short drive. Once there, we connected with our friend Charlie and his 'humans' for an easy hiking day. There are nearly 2 dozen hiking trails and 3 backpacking trails to choose from ranging from easy to difficult. This time of year the trails are much busier than they were a couple of years ago in September when we were here .

Dalvay-By-The-Sea

A rainy day, so we explored a nearby Canadian National Historic Site and enjoyed a very nice lunch in their dining room.
