Wed July 30 - Bracklay Beach, bicycles and Richards

Getting ready for the ride

Leaving the bay!

Robinsons Island Map

Decided to go off on a bike ride, so we drove over to the Brackley Dalvay section of the National park and parked about half way along at Cove Head, Started out westward and got to the end at Robinsons Island, then returned to the truck and indulged ourselves with Lobster Roll and the best battered fish ever at Richards. Its very well known and has a well deserved reputation. After meeting a really nice couple originally from PEI and now living in Okotoks, Alberta. We shared stories (and their clams). Suitably revived, we carried on westward and went to the Dalvay end of the park and back again. In total we cycled some 28 km and, although it was all flat, we both felt it was quite the workout due to the temp and humidity.

We took the long way home via the great Canadian Soap co, and PEI Preserve Company. Got some awesome mint jelly!

Taking a break at Robinsons Island

Back home at 5.30 we washed the rig and got going on the blog as the rain is finally beginning.
