Birthday Week - Day 2

Our second day of my birthday week had us driving over to Prince Edward Island.  We crossed the Confederation Bridge (See July 18, 2018 Blog - Prince Edward Island).  Mark wanted to play the two disc golf courses on the island.

Huck-It was a new course that he didn’t play last year.

There were some interesting basket placements.

The second course was Hillcrest Disc Golf Course.

It’s a very pretty course that he played last year.

Mark had found a ferry running from PEI to Nova Scotia.  It was about a 2 hour drive from the last disc golf course but would save us several hours of driving once the ferry landed in Nova Scotia.

Being a Monday, and the fact the ferries left every 1 1/2 hours, we didn’t think there would be a need for a reservation.  We were wrong.  The ferries were booked solid.  We had to turn around and drive 2 hours back to the Confederation Bridge to cross over into New Brunswick.

And, just like last year, we underestimated the driving distances here in Canada.  We had a few stops planned but by the time we drove back over the Confederation Bridge to New Brunswick then drove into Nova Scotia, it was getting late.

We decided to head on to our hotel in Antigonish and get an early start the next day.
