Just inside Prince Edward Island is a gift shop!!With a statue one of the island's most popular character.
Anne of Green Gables written by Maud Montgomery.
We visited the authors home and the farm of Green Gables.
Both are National Historic Sites and in the Prince Edward Island National Park.
The Confederation Bridge. Eight miles long and connecting New Brunswick and P.E.I. It is the longest bridge over frozen waters. Fortunately we had a beautiful warm day to tour.
A Provincial Beach Park showing the red dirt cliffs and mud-red waters. P.E.I. is washing away at the rate of one meter per year due the strong tidal and wave actions.
Green Gables NHS, but that is not Anne
Cape Tyron lighthouse. A beautiful area and cape in the boondocks.
The "road" to Cape Tyron
Back in Nova Scotia at the World Heritage Site. These fossil beds are known for the fossils of Hylonomus lyelli, the first reptile to come onto land from the sea.Some of the best examples of Carboniferous Age fossils in the world are found here and the place is referred to as 'the coal age Galapagos'.
This appears to be a large fossilized stump of a palm tree.
Human activity for fun--no fossils.
Holding a collection of fossils--apparently all of the TERRIFIC samples have been taken to the lab. This one is OK, but nothing to write home about.
A closer look.
In New Brunswick, near the Maine border is the world's longest covered bridge. It is our last stop before recrossing into the USA.
