We head towards PEI and cross the Confederation Bridge.

We left Fundy National park and headed to Moncton, wanting Canadian Tire and a grocery store. Right into Moncton we found Sobeys so bought mostly non-perishable foods. Then we drove into Moncton some more until we found a Canadian tire. Unfortunately it was under renovation and they had little in terms of camping equipment. We did pick up a T-shirt as souvenir though.

Then we ate at Wendy’s, and headed towards the Confederation Bridge. It took roughly 12 minutes to cross. It’s just 2 lanes, one each way, with an 80 limit. I had some Islander tailgate me most of the bridge! Once off the bridge, we headed towards West point. Where the West point lighthouse is, there is also the Cedar Dunes Provincial Park. Small campsite on the same ground as the West Point lighthouse, right on the south west point of PEI. The sunset on the gulf of the St Lawrence was stunning. We walked on the beach at 1am taking wacky pictures. He also had fun with his telescope as the sky was absolutely clear. The wind was magical, but also a little cold. Was a different kind of cold then Fundy, not as damp, but far more windy.
