Aug 13-17 Charlottetown, PEI










We checked into the Harrington RV park on Passport America (half price = $12.50 per night) which is 6 miles North of Charlottetown. Very quiet and almost vacant which is good because our power system has failed us so we need to run on generator twice a day. Norm has been in touch with several RV people but so far everybody is coming up blank. We went to the Homecoming Fair which is equivalent to our fall fairs, but much smaller. Toured one day to the northwest point of the island on the North Cape Coastal Drive, and a second day to the northeast point on the Points East Coastal Drive so feel that we have seen a good cross section of the lifestyles and history here. Went through the haunted mansion at Summerside. Stopped for a great seafood lunch at the Spinaker Mall in Summerside. Busy place as the Canada Summer Games are on presently in several venues throughout the province. Ended up near Cavendish at North Rustico for another seafood dinner. Drove through Georgetown and Souris on the east coast.
Golfed today at the Rustico Golf & Country Club (after 2 PM $69 for 2 with power cart) then hit a Lobster supper at the Lobster Claw, a very small restaurant on our way home.
