<P><FONT color=#990000>On our drive from Hopewell to the Confederation Bridge&nbsp;which connects to&nbsp;PEI was eventful.&nbsp; The drive was great, no problems until we hit a huge patch of manure that had fallen out of a dump truck.&nbsp; It was all over the road I tell ya.&nbsp; Had to swerve and go on the gravel to get around it.&nbsp; We did run over a huge dumping with the car and we surely paid for that later.&nbsp; </FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#990000>We arrived at the confederation bridge and as we stepped out from the car, it stunk like crap.&nbsp; It was all over the car..LOL!! Eww!&nbsp; </FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#990000>We stopped over to the side before going over.&nbsp; Got some great shots and I absolutely loved the red rocks and sand!&nbsp; After a few pictures, jumped back in the car and crossed the 12.9km bridge into PEI.&nbsp; As soon as we crossed the bridge we made a left and took a highway that took us right up to North Cape, the tip of PEI.&nbsp; Pretty awesome I would say!&nbsp; We arrived up there in no time, can't believe how small PEI really is.&nbsp; It looked like on the map that it would take forever to get there.&nbsp; We arrived in Tignish and there was absolutely nothing there..LOL&nbsp; Pretty much all the small places having nothing in town, or it's not even a town.&nbsp; We headed down to Alberton because i remembered seeing a sign of "food".&nbsp; We ended up at this little dinner place and had fish n' chips!&nbsp; Once we departed there, we headed down to Summerside.&nbsp; </FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#990000>Summerside was actually active.&nbsp; Ended up staying in the Island B&amp;B.&nbsp; The town was a ghost town but it seems like out in the east coast, everyone seems to go out to the bars around midnight.&nbsp; We also found out that Mark Messier and the Stanley Cup were in Summerside because of a resident winning a contest.&nbsp; How cool is that!&nbsp; We ended up at Dooley's for a couple of drinks before heading back to the B&amp;B to crash for the night!</FONT></P>

Yes slowly our PEI adventure was coming to an end.&nbsp; We spent some more time in Charlottetown, catching up on emails, having a look at the shops - the official Anne of Green Gables Store, and Anne of Green Gables Chocolates.&nbsp; They really do know how to capitalise on a good thing, everything is named after Anne - Shining Waters Amusement Park, Kindred Spirits Cottages, there's even an entire brand of AofGG raspberry cordial named after the chapter where Anne &amp; Diana (don't) drink raspberry cordial.&nbsp; <br><br>We drove out along the east coast, with very pretty scenery along the way, and stayed at a couple of really nice Provincial Parks - they're the best places to camp, government owned/operated and therefore without all the horrid add-ons like pools &amp; golf &amp; amusements and hundreds of scary RVs.&nbsp; They were usually right on the water, and since the tourist season is basically over, there were often only one or two other people staying there.&nbsp; <br><br>We didn't really do much at all except drive around, hang out on the beach, and go out for a traditional lobster supper (well Maria had that &amp; I just went for plain old fish 'n' chips, since seafood's not really my thing).&nbsp; <br><br>And that was the end of our PEI adventures.&nbsp; <br>
