Day 29. Sept 4, 2013

We enjoyed the PEI mussels last night.  I sautéed some shallots and garlic, then added white wine.  Then steamed the mussels for a short time.  Yummy with French bread to soak up the broth.  

Nice staying in a motel, for a change.  

We really like PEI.  It is quite rural, and the people live off farm and sea.  We drove around part of the perimeter of the island, stopping for lunch at a seaside cafe.  We shared some fish chowder.  So good...they made it with fresh cream.  Visited a distillery where they make moonshine.  Only legal one in North America

We bought a live lobster for dinner.  $8.00.  Boiled him up over the campfire with rice I had made in the motel.  Side of cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, from roadside stand.

We are staying at a provincial park tonight.  It is adjacent to a country club/golf course and riding stables.  Nice
