    We enjoyed our time on PEI. We enjoyed visiting the Anne of Green Gables estate among other sites. We stayed at the KOA and enjoyed dinner at Victoria by the Sea. I just mentioned to Marie that we need to go back to PEI. The areas you are descibing are areas we didnt get to see. PS. I like that Canada allows you tubers to video tape free as long as you aren't promoting a product. Nice job.

    • @GrandAdventure
      @GrandAdventure  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Most of them do, Ram, but Campbell's Cove is so far off the beaten path that it doesn't seem to. But that's why we picked it -- peace and solitude, instead of the rat race in areas of the island like Cavendish.
      For ferries, the Cape May-Lewes ferry across the Delaware Bay that we took this last Sunday beats any that we've before encountered. Beautiful terminals with a full bar/grill and free mini golf while you await your departure. Full-on jetways to get foot passengers directly to the upper deck without interacting with the loading cars. Adirondack chairs on the outside decks and aircraft seating on the inside. It was plush!

    excellent once again Marc. I could not agree with you more, in that Cavendish is fun to see, but it is not really representative of the Island which offers simply so much more. We spent time last summer at Red Point Provincial Park which is not far from where you stayed, but I have taken careful note of where you were as it looked quite nice. Looking forward to your Cap Breton voyage next week. We love the Cabot Trail and everything the area has to offer, but I maintain that the drive around the Gaspe might be the more beautiful drive. Having said that I have done the Cabot Trail several times and will do it again. As always safe travels.....

    While it’s free to come to PEI you should take the ferry here and take the bridge home as it’s cheaper to leave the island.

    • @GrandAdventure
      @GrandAdventure  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Linda, in our case it made far more sense to do the opposite as we were coming from Kouchibouguac and heading afterwards to Cape Breton. Taking the ferry to the island, and leaving via the bridge would've added hours of driving in both directions and also added substantial diesel costs @$7/gallon while towing, which were more than offset by the higher toll for the ferry.

      If your planning a trip always take the ferry from Nova Scotia and leave from the bridge to see New Brunswick and yes even us islanders have to pay to get off the island. The government won’t even help when we have appointments to see a doctor in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.

    Thanks Marc... I never got to visit PEI while in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia back in 1998. So this was interesting for me to see.
    I didn't know about the very temperate climate year round. That's really attractive.
    Does the Campbell's Park stay open in the winter?
    I noticed there weren't any sunny days on the Island while you were there. Is that typical?

      Thanks, Gord. We had some wonderfully sunny days while we were there -- the thumbnail photo for this video was taken on one of them. But we had plenty of clouds on other days, too. Given the maritime environment I suspect that's not unusual.
