PEI

We took the ferry to PEI after a snack and walk in the park.

 We got to see a few porpoises on this crossing.

 It was a beautiful 27 C in Charlottetown today.

 This is the site of the 1964 conference that led to Confederation  in 1967.

 The smallest legislative chamber in the country is one of only two where the government sits on the left of the chair.  It's all about having the nicest part of the room because of where the sun comes in.

 This is a beautiful little city with...

 ...beautiful little girls.

 I parked in a bit of a soft spot today, but I was kind of glad for the photo op.

 It's hard to just drive by all the horses.

At the Northern tip of the island there are a bunch of wind generators.  One of the biggest has these blades which are about 30 m long.

 Any more north and you've gotta be in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

 Today was also lobster day with Dad and Mom.

 Sunday after church we took a drive up to Cavendish.

 In 1874 Lucy Maud Montgomery was born here.

(that's a joke)

Green Gables

 Raspberry cordial anyone?

Lover's Lane

 There really are forget me nots in the Spring.

 At Cavendish Beach there's great scenery and big air.

 Leaving PEI via Confederation Bridge.

 On our last night with Dad and Mom we celebrated Mom's 81st. We didn't bother with the candles.

 Then it was off to  Halifax one more time to drop off my parents.

 We should have zoomed in on Lambert's head.  That's why we took the picture after all.

 We left Dad and Mom at the hotel and drove off into the sunset.

What a blessing it's been to have grandparents with us the whole month of May!  We have gotten spoiled.

It's kind of strange.  Now we are really heading for home, even though we turned around in west Texas.
