This was mostly along the coast once we hit Bathurst and up to Caraquet but then headed inland enough that we were disappointed in not seeing the water as much.<br \/>\nCaraquet was nice.  Many houses spread along the waterfront with lots of room between each one.  We drove through Evangeline and Pokemouche and through Miramichi before Lunch.  We took a turn through Kouchibouguac National Park but were disappointed at the total lack of turn offs or picnicing spots along the way.<br \/>\nSo out of the park, back onto highway 11 and a run into Shediac for lunch.  Shediac, home of the Giant Lobster.  Too bad it was closed that day.<br \/>\nIt was being shellac&#8217;d \ud83d\ude42 Nice touristy place once you found it.<br \/>\nPicked up some swag and headed off for PEI.<br \/>\nThe Confederation Bridge was cool&#8230; and very very tall.<br \/>\nWe could see over the edge of the guardrail no problem and took a few images.  It is also very long&#8230; km after km.<br \/>\nWe finally arrived at a tourist town built at the end of the bridge at Borden.  Nice place.  Had the equivalent of our LCBO.  We picked up supplies and headed to Cavendish via Summerside.  Lots of potatos in PEI.  Not much in Summerside.  We toured through the town looking for something to do or see and it ended up looking like Picton, or Napanee, or any other small town.<br \/>\nUp to Cavendish and into the National Park.  Hmm.. can&#8217;t find the campsites.  drove and drove and drove.  Passed a small  fox sitting on the road.  Finally we turned around, went back into Cavendish and tried another campsite area sign.  Presto!<br \/>\nThe National Park is quite large and we were originally not in the camping section.<br \/>\nFound one on the bluffs overlooking the ocean.  Very nice.<br \/>\nLong day.  A little too much travelling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day two started cold&#8230; did we mention that? 3 degrees C to be exact.
