Sea Kayaking

We went kayaking around the west side of mount Desert Island- a 6 mile voyage where we saw a lot of ocean life!

Blackwoods Campground

Before it started raining, we thought camping would be a great idea! We set up in Blackwoods Campground in Acadia NP.....Then, it started raining.

Bar Harbor.....................................at last!

Somehow, every year, when we finally get to Bar Harbor, we wonder why we didn't just come directly here! It is one of THE most beautiful places on earth!

Leaving PEI

We spent our first night on the road from PEI in Cobscook Bay State Park in Maine.

The park is located on a bay connected to the ocean, but pretty far inland. This makes for some striking scenery.
We set up our tent right along the bay-a gorgeous spot, especially by moonlight.
We crossed the border from Canada at Calais, Maine-which has a pretty old library.
A toll of $41.50 gets you across the Confederation Bridge which crosses the Northumberland Strait into New Brunswick.

Charlottetown deux

Kathie and I returned to Charlottetown for a final visit before we left the island.

We ate at a restaurant that provided blankets for the times it gets cold!


We asked directions, but had trouble finding someone who spoke English.


A french acadian band entertained us.


Every good town has a library.........or a Bibliotheque.
This sculpture in the city center is the only moose I've seen!

The Blue Shank

We weren't sure what "Blue Shank" meant, but decided to turn our bikes around and ride back through Kelvin's Grove to Kensington. Beautiful ride through freshly plowed potato fields.
