Today we drove across the interior of PEI with its rolling
farmlands, stopping at St. Peter’s Bay and then on to PEI National Park,
Greenwich. This park is noted for its
impressive parabolic dunes. We hiked the
Dunes trail which took us through a wooded section, which rapidly changed to
wetlands and finally the dunes on the beach.
We enjoyed all 3 sections of the trail but were especially impressed
with the floating walk that was constructed over the wetlands. The floating walk ended at the very large
dunes. They are awesome to look at!
We then drove south along the coast to Montague and stopped
for lunch at Windows on The Water which overlooks the beautiful harbor.
After a stop at Panmure Island, we headed back to Charlottetown
for a little shopping.
