Day 8...Gaspe and Perce Rock


This rock looks like an angry first inhabitant. 

A beautiful church in the town of Perce.

Another great little hike up to the cross! 

Some say horse, some donkey and others a cow drinking water.  Your opinion? 

Every dot is one of 200,000 Gannett birds!  


I'm even on this boat trip,  and loving it...

Dad's also enjoying himself! 

We spotted 1 whale,  multiple seals and 200,000 Gannets...

Using your imagination,  here's a monster whale,  part of a pod of 3 or 4 that spouted only 4 light years away...

Day 7...Iles de La Madeleine



Smoking herring...yummy!

These fish spend 3 months in the rafters. 

Multiple fires each day,  smoldering for months. 


The smoke escapes and blesses all the neighbors. 






Remember the masthead... here you go! 


It's in French... translates to "don't be an idiot!"

Peggy takes great pictures too!

Sunsets are stunning. 

Motown night! 


Peggy got all the ladies up and dancing!

Day 6...Charlottetown...Anne of Green Gables

Oyster cages...1.2 million pounds a year! 28 million pounds of mussels and 44 million pounds of lobster... just from this one little island!

Scenic PEI coastline with famous red dirt. 

Actual blue sky... finally! 

Everyone enjoying the sea and sky. 

A famous author I'm told...

Pretty cool place,  just getting a major remodel.  Many Japanese tourists since it's  required reading. 












The carriage. 
Sportin' the ponies!


Killin' the ponies! 





Catching a theme? 

Beautiful 6 mile seaside hike. 

3 spires are better than 2.

Named after George III's Queen Charlotte...
