Went to the PEI Farmer's Market. It was in a building like one of the commercial buildings at the Tulelake Fair. There were 2 aisles with vendors on both sides. There were several vegetable booths. Also ones for bread, cheese, soap, knitting and several others. And quite a number of food booths. There were shoulder to shoulder people and there was so much conversation, it was like a big family reunion. Such a good example of community. We got some food and ate in the car-no place to sit.
We went to downtown Charlottetown and learned about how the confederacy of Canada came about in 1864. History is so fascinating, and here there is so much. Had an interesting conversation with 2 security guards at the museum. We asked them if they could identify the song we heard sung at the restaurant in Alma - we had recorded a portion of it. In a few seconds one of them said it was "Song for the Mira", a very popular song about the Mira River of Cape Breten Island in Nova Scotia.
Walked to the water. Lo and behold. The rain stopped and it turned out to be a pleasant, mid 60's, overcast day.
Turns out our motel is about 1/4 mile away. We checked in, rested and relaxed.
