What an amazing day!

We started off early after a breakfast of a banana and cereal and headed to Murray  River. We cycled on what I would legitimately call rolling hills and stopped at Murray Rover for blueberry iced tea and a visit to a local general store.
 We continued on to Murray Harbour where we orders a Lobster roll to go from a restaurant reccomended by Megan and 
 We then continued up one of the many steep hills required to exit the harbour towns of PEI and collected food for our pot luck dinner back at camp. We then peddled to the Cape Bear Lighthouse and Marconi station where the first distress call of the Totanic was heard. 
We met up with Megan and Spencer there and heard stories about the shifting tides of the Northumberland Straight. We cycled on past farms and bee keepers and the distant view of Nova Scotia across the straight. We finally stopped at a delightful winery, sampled some wines and headed into our exceptional campsite for our potluck dinner and final evening together. 

With a view of the Ferry to Nova Scotia going back and forth!

Our pot luck!
Tomorrow is a 64 km day... With a "Handful" of steep hills... That means 10. Think of us as we toil  towards Charlottetown...our warm hotel room waiting for us!
