Day 5:
August 12
Well,
bad singing (Me and Bobby McGee) kept us awake later than usual. But
the weekend is over, so...fingers crossed.
The
skies were very overcast, so we hung around and decided to wait for
noon before deciding on a bike tour. Olympics (we get one channel,
badly) and lunch were followed by rain and darker skies, so we took a
long walk on the beach (have found a few pieces of beach glass and
some rocks, of course):
We met
a lovely woman from Toronto who, with her husband, spends six months
a year here. She said we were very fortunate to have seen the Irish
Mossing yesterday since few Islanders even get to see it any more.
Back
for more Olympics and reading. THEN, we decided to use the wind for
something fun and went to fly our kite (we bought a $5 plastic
Spiderman kite to see if we'd like to get a better one some day; I'd
say the answer is YES!):
Rain
started up again (this IS typical PEI weather and they NEED the rain
because they've had the dry heat like in Ontario, but I want to tour
with the bike!), so we came in, ate dinner and watched the Closing
Ceremonies.
No new
view from my chair (just add rain to the last one) or view from the
bike. Tomorrow will be better. Promise! But we still love it here.
