You should have seen the custom officer's face when I told him I going to visit "Saint" Edwards Island while I am camping at Murray Beach. I made it to the At the Canadian border. He asked so many questions, he didn't even give me time to correct myself! Maybe if I would correctly said "Prince" Edwards Island, he might not have made me itemize the contents of my refrigerator.  Looking at me hard, the officer said "Where did you get the eggs?" "Roaring Acres Farm in Connecticut" I responded. He told me to park the van and go inside. Entering the building, looking for the group W bench, I thought the next question will be do you now Todd Thedell, but the pretty lady at the desk just asked my name and said I was good to go.  
So I entered Canada, jumped on Hwy 1 and headed east. I stopped in Fredericton for lunch at Tim Hortons, in Canada Tim Hortons is as popular as McDonalds is in the US, but they have good coffee. After lunch I found a Micro cache in the parking lot and earned my New Brunswick Souvenir. 


I arrived at Plage Murray Beach - Provincial Park and checked in at the office. Site 101 was right on the edge of the loop, only a short walk to the beach and the North Atlantic. My spot for the next 2 days. The view out the van door pretty nice. 

In the morning I packed up and drove to Cape Jourimain and took the 7 mile bridge across the bay to Prince Edwards Island (PEI), there was a virtual cache and a couple traditional caches in the park at the end of the


bridge, Earning the PEI souvenir, I paid the toll and went back across the bridge then headed to Nova Scotia. Just across the province line, I found a peanut butter jar cache in a tree behind an old church.  


I visited a nearby park, right near the water, found 2 small caches and walked  around enjoying the beautiful weather. 




It was still early afternoon by the time I got back to site 101 and set up. Plenty of time for a long walk on the beach and in the ocean. Although I was looking forward to visiting Quebec, I could have stayed here for a week.
