We had a quiet, peaceful ride today mostly through farm land with many views of the Northumberland Strait. I read somewhere that traveling on PEI was like riding through a garden. That is a good description of today.

View from the Victoria waterfront

The Victoria lighthouse

There are sheds which look like the ones used by commercial fisherman for off season storage of their gear. We were told that this little community is pure tourism, so I think these may not be real working fish sheds.

Sheds by the water - I would say storage for commercial fisherman, but I think these may be more decorative than useful.

A view of Victoria after we left town. The lighthouse is visible in the center left.

We had sunshine when we left this morning. It lasted for maybe half an hour.

I didn't get good pictures of everything, but the crops we saw in the garden today were potatoes, corn, soybeans, strawberries and hay.

Strawberry field to the sea We follow the ripening berries north when we leave Florida in April. This was about the last time we saw any hint of blue sky today.

This barn appears to have a canvas roof and door covering.

Cows on a hillside

Sometimes, a cow's life can be exhausting.

We'll be in Charlottetown for three nights, sightseeing and relaxing.

Today's ride: 30 miles (48 km)
Total: 3,158 miles (5,082 km)
