PEI by the zip line

Adventure of the week.
Its probably been my morning bike rides that I enjoy the most. For the exercise as well as for time by myself.  I wake up before everyone else, so I go biking, and in PEI, its some great biking.   Paved trails from Cavendish to Rustico through forest, behind dunes, along the cliffs, and always with a view of the sea.  Or the other way, on the homestead trail, on chipped rock and red clay, past farm fields and golden bales, along the shores of new London bay.  It's like a little bit of Saskatchewan by the Sea.

Misadventure of the week.
Not everything you read on the internet is true.  The Fireworks at the Harvey Community Days were listed for 9:00.  We drove from Woolastook to Harvey 20 minutes to find out the fireworks were cancelled.   We also took a trip to Charlottetown to see the confederation players acting out some important Canadian history.  What the website failed to mention is that this occurs only once at noon each day.  We really wanted Meritt to get this as a living history lesson, so we ended up going back to Charlottetown at noon 2 days later, ostensibly so that we could hear the confederation brass followed by the historic play.  We caught the historic play,but sadly, confederation brass ended August 4.
