Day 8 Hopewell Rocks, Prince Edward Island

We loaded up our stuff early this morning, set it out for the porters to take to the bus and headed down for another great breakfast. Then we all boarded the bus and headed towards Hopewell Rocks. The bus lulled most of the bus asleep, and those who were awake were tormented by the dry humor of “Blake”, the guide. The flowerpot rocks were pretty awesome, and we were able to view them from multiple areas and walk along the water. It was low tide, so we could “walk on the ocean floor”.

Then we headed back into Nova Scotia, north and over the Confederation Bridge. The bridge is the longest (over 8 miles) to cross freezing salt water. We had made it to Prince Edward Island. Since we were staying near Cavendish, we got to view some of the countryside prior to getting to the hotel. The scenery is amazing. We had a dinner at the hotel that wasn’t our best yet – they ran out of salmon, and turned the lights off on us. After dinner we played Phase 10 until they kicked us out of the lobby.

Lesson Learned: 30 seconds per woman to use the restroom is not enough when there are only 2 stalls.
