Where AM I

I am in Prince Edward Island. We thought it would be great to fly up to Halifax on Wednesday night, spend the night there, and then fly to Charlottetown the next morning. Sounded great. In reality, our plane on Wednesday night was delayed about 4 hours, so we didn't get into Halifax until 1:00 am, and that was after one of the bumpiest flights I have ever been on. Ms "flys everywhere" was actually scared when we were getting ready to land it was so windy! Got to the hotel around 1:30 am and of course I couldn't sleep right away, and only ended up with about 2 hours of snoozing. Got up the next day to rain, more rain and then more rain. Had a very turbulent flight into PEI - and I mean bumpy and windy. Freezing cold here but a lovely dinner with friends and a good nights sleep. Tonight I am going home!!! This site is just so far away and so hard to get to that a two day trip just isn't worth it!

Ah well....

Oy, I would not like to fly like that either. Halifax, Nova Sokia?
(sp?)
Reminds me of a Stan Rogers song.
Glad you got home safely. You must be tired.

I'm glad you are safe, I was beginning to worry a bit dear one.

PEI sounds like a wonderful place to visit-in the summer.

Happy you are safe home.
This place reminded me of a TV series with the name of 'Island Tales', if I'm not mistaken. Some years ago it was on air here and it was so popular.
Have a nice time.

yes, Halifax, Nova Scotia (reminds me of lox) and Prince Edward Island - out in the Atlantic. I can't wait to go there in the summer, but in the winter it is so bleak!

You mean you just wanted to get away? I think that is so cool even if it sounds tiring. What a nice mini adventure. I love the photo of the trees in winter and the deer below. A pretty sight.

ces - I was working up there, not a vacation. But maybe I should look at it that way and stop griping!
