In the morning we got the trailer all packed up to leave to Nova Scotia. After everything was all ready we set down the road towards Wood Island’s ferry terminal. Along the way we stopped at a PEI lobster dinner place to grab a quick bite, then we continued down the road to our ferry. Hoping to catch the 6:30 ferry we arrived at the terminals at 6:17 but they told us it had left already. Luckily for us though, a logging truck was behind us and the scale had radioed for him to get on so, because we were ahead of him we got to drive on up to the ferry and board. It was a beautiful day outside, a little windy though, so we got to stand outside and take some beautiful shots of ... read more

We woke up to take the bridge to P.E.I. We drove to the information center just before the bridge and took a little walk to the base of it so that we could get a clear picture of the bridge. It was so long that you couldn’t see the whole way, and Dad was telling us that they actually close the bridge down on windy days so that cars don’t get blown into the Atlantic below them. It was really cool driving over the bridge, we were high enough up that we could see cormorants and other sea birds fishing, and boats going down the ocean ... all kinds of neat things. When we reached the end we spent an hour and a half at the information center and had some Subway sandwiches. Our first stop ... read more

The Day was quite dreary and really rainy so we decided to keep driving until we reached a small area in New Brunswick called Grand Falls. We pulled over into a small campsite and set up for the night. Although the weather wasn’t the best we sure saw a lot of beautiful pastures and such ... it was like being in Scotland or Ireland ... absolutely stunning. We stopped at a small wharf and talked to some lobster fishermen. After watching the fast unloading process the guys told us we could have a few lobster off the next boat for $4 a pound. Dad got 14 lobsters for $40. it was quite a deal. Then while we were driving we saw a man digging for clams. Being the curious folks that we are, we walked down ... read more

We started the day off with Dad’s orders of laundry, then we went to finish off our time in Ottawa on a tour of the city on a double decker bus. The tour was really cool, we all got to sit on the top level, and listen to some cool facts. We passed 24 Sussex Drive, Little Italy and the marketplace. When the tour ended we walked to the marketplace where there are enough restaurants to have breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday for a month, without going to the same place twice ! We stopped at a cute little Vietnamese place to get some soup and vermicelli.. Then we finished off by getting a coffee at Timothy’s - Dad’s new favorite coffee shop because they have lactose free milk - and later walked Sussex drive. Our ... read more

We spent our last day in the area walking Yonge Street, the busiest street in Toronto. Shae and I got Starbucks coffees and Mom, Dad and Shawn got some McDonald’s Cafe thingers. Then we went shopping, we spotted some cute dresses, saw some crazy looking people, and eventually bought some sneakers for Dad, Shae and me. Then we left Mom to do some shopping of her own and continued on to the Hockey Hall of Fame. In the hall we saw amazing exhibits including some on Roger Neilson, Marice ( The Rocket) Richard, Sidney Crosby featuring the net and gloves from the Olympic Gold Metal Goal, and one one the 2010-2011 Stanley Cup Playoff Finals. After looking at everything and playing some games, and watching a video about Ryan Kesler we headed upstairs to see 2 ... read more
