Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island

We docked today before 8 AM.  I arranged an afternoon panoramic island and Confederation Bridge tour through Princess.  We had a nice morning, slept in and then did a walk of the city.  We boarded our Princess Tour at 12:30 and had a great tour guide.

This flowerbed boat was in the park right by the dock.

A nice street!

War Memorial.  Soldiers represent WW I, WW II and Korean War.

Lots of nice flowers everywhere!

Park very close to Confederation Bridge.

Confederation Bridge.  Finished in 1997 at a cost of $1 Billion.  It's 9 miles long and $47 to cross return.
If you take the ferry from PEI to NB and the bridge back, you don't pay the toll.
It's only collected on the PEI side!
