After leaving the cottage, we moved Pearl to Twin Shores Campground in the Darnley area. We were still in the region of the Island referred to as the Green Gables Shore. As we explored, we were able to take in some of the Island's other areas and parts of the Coastal Drives.

The Points East Coastal Drive took us to Wood Islands Ferry where we picnicked on Lobster Rolls while waiting for the ferry to come in. It was a gorgeous sunny day with no wind coming in from the sea.
The coastal drives always lead to lighthouses. Wood Islands and Cape Bear were two we found. An interesting fact about Cape Bear was that it was the first to hear the Titanic’s distress signal as it sank off the coast of Newfoundland April 15,1912.WOOD ISLANDS LIGHTHOUSE...1876
CAPE BEAR LIGHTHOUSE...1881
MONTAGUE HARBOR...A LOVELY PLACE TO BE
Last year we found the best ice cream ever in Michigan…MOOMERS! Well, this year we found the best ice cream in Canada…COWS! Of course we just had to make a comparison by having a few cones. COWS even has a tour of its creamery in Charlottetown. Frank is always looking for great ice cream!!JOHN AND ROSI...LOOK WHAT WE FOUND!
We had a wonderful time while on Prince Edward Island and look forward to returning in five years when Frank has his 50th college reunion in Nova Scotia. We left the Island on July 21 heading for Houlton, Maine...back to the States!
