Saint Peters Bay to New Richmond


The visitor center opened at 8AM and I enquired where we could get our flat tire plugged. The local repair shop was just down the street and for $10 Johnny plugged the tire.  He didn’t have the tire pressure monitoring system tool either, so we’re still driving with the warning light on.

After the repair job we headed to the second Prince Edward Island National Park and went for a swim.  A bit cold and Ruth had a crab climb onto her foot.

After the swim was a trip to Green Gables, the location on which Anne of Green Gables is based. We watched two short movies about the site and L. M. Montgomery’s life and then toured barn, house and gift shop in the rain. Once safely back in our RV we had lunch and then departed on the long drive towards Gaspe.

We crossed the Confederation Bridge into New Brunswick. The view from the highway is mostly uninteresting and we stopped only to switch drivers, coffee and ice cream and again later for gas. Once into Quebec the scenery is spectacular and we found a nice campground by the river for the night.
