We continue our travels today heading to the western side of the island. We stop for a break and call for ferry reservations. It’s a 7 hour trip from Newfoundland to Cap Breton with ferries leaving Newfoundland roughly at noon and midnight. Wells makes the call and the next ferry available that can accommodate our rig is Friday night at midnight. Of course, we hoped we could get on the midday trip but we take what we can take. If the shorebirds are still along the Bay of Fundy when we can get there then all is well. If not then we will skip looking for them and go direction to Prince Edward Island.
We are now close to 100 miles north of the ferry on a large cape that sticks out west from the Island, Cape St. Geroge. We find a regional park where they placed us away from all the other campers on the beach at a beautiful spot. It’s an unserviced site without power and water, but that is okay with us! This spot reminds us of camping at Sea Rim State Park along the Gulf of Mexico in Texas. We are next to the water without anybody else around.
