28 July 2015  Forecasts, Forecasts, Forecasts...

      The wind was light when we got up and even tho the forecast said it was supposed to pick up, then rain, I thot it looked like we had a chance to move on. We were on the move down the Southern edge of PEI making good time with the 2 knot current but the wind did come up and it was getting choppy, so we made use of the refuge harbor at Wood Island, also the PEI terminus of the Ferry to Pictou.

     The Harbormaster came down to collect for dockage, $10, and for that he would also give me a ride to the liquor store for ice.  Such a deal, hardly wet, and a ride back.  Thanks man,  see you in the sunny south!

      Internet access made possible by the ferries Confederation and Holiday Island while they are in harbor unloading and loading vehicles. When it quits raining, (they were right about that too) we will hike to town.

     Ok, we didn't make it to town, but we had a nice walk along the beach, to the lighthouse and back.
