Day 71: Confederation Bridge - Prince Edward Island

 Dear Gilles, 

Today we drove 325 km. We made it to the campground, in the centre of the island. I finally crossed the Confederation Bridge. Wowzers what an impressive structure. 

It's raining. And plans to continue raining. 


We're staying at New Glasgow Highlands Campground. It's a really nice little place. LOTS of cabins. 

I had emailed ahead to ask if they had cabins instead of a non-serviced site that we had reserved. They did. We took it. 

Winds of 59 km/h. It was a Nor'Wester. Crazy rainy.  Crazy windy. 

5C in the cabin when we arrived. Outside weather promised to feel like -2 C with the winds. We thought we would be wearing winter clothes through the night. But when I went to check in - 2 hours after our arrival - they offered us a little (very little) space heater. We ran it all night and were able to get the cabin to a very comfortable 15 C. 

We watched Mufasa on Disney+ with the good wifi available to us. Shivering a bit as the cabin warmed up but generally entertained as a family.
