July 31- Cap Pele to Charlottetown (PEI)

Bike log: 105.0km, 666m of vertical, avg. speed 29.9 km/h

We’re in PEI – really we are! Pay no attention to the missing sign at the welcome greeting, just look at the red soil. We took the confedartion bridge onto the island this morning, and the first thing you have to do when you get on is to go through a maze of very tourist-trappy stores. “Quick! Tourists are here! Get their money before they leave the island!!!” The old welcome sign is located just pass there,but maybe they took it down since by this point they figure people have been welcomed enough just by stopping and buying some Anne of Green Gables memorabilia. Or maybe the budget for keeping up the welcome sign went into the construction of the tourist village. Oh well, maybe I’ll get a photo at the ferry on the way off.
