Just a couple of days after we got home from Hawaii, Ken got on a plane to go to Prince Edward Island in Canada. He and his friend, Greg Last, and other friends had planned this wonderful biking adventure which took them from tip to tip across Prince Edward Island. He had an incredible adventure.

That looks so fun. That has been a dream of mine too. I'd love to bike PEI and see Anne's country. She is my favorite literary character. Lucky Ken.
Beautiful pics! And what a fun and amazing trip! I also loved reading about your trip to Hawaii. I love the island of Kauai and it looks like you had a wonderful time.
