Nothing like a light snack for lunch!

It was a wonderfully sunny day... Brenda exclaimed loudly with gusto... "I LOVE IT"

Don't even ask how many calories.

The weather has been very warm as of late.

The thermometer  on the Piaggio read 31 before dropping back down to 30. Traffic was brisk indicating that Islander's have for the most part, ready to move on from CoVid 19.  I can't help but be pessimistic.  My  normal Capricorn brain is telling me to be cautious but if the pool area at Victoria sea side park was an indication, it was a feeling the many didn't or wouldn't share with me.

It was a straight shot via Lower Malpeque Rd  right to the heart of Charlottetown, where Canada was born.

I crossed the heart of the Capital, parked the MP3 at a 1 hour parking spot and after a brief search in the downtown core found a small corner breakfast where we had the "Super" king size chocolate covered , berry brightened gazillion calorie Waffle touched off by black coffee for me and a  custom mix for Bren.

With no worry that we were going to be ticketed, after all the Piaggio was made for streets like this.  If anything, the cool little Italian would be held up by curious question asking passerby.

A nice cool respite Charlottetown  Victoria Park 

Riding scooters and especially a funky little one like we were riding in such a historic setting historic it was not hard to feel very "Cosmo" ! After the Fathers of Confederation hashed out the beginning making of the country. It's doubtful that didn't on a mega waffle, and they wouldn't be riding a neat little Three wheeler.

I get asked every place I go "how can you ride that thing." Well the secret is, forget it's got three wheels. Yes boys and girls... she's a leaner.

From there we took a myriad of one way streets, parked at the dairy bar, stowed the lids and took the better part of 90 minutes wandering the trails amid tall cool hundred foot tall trees at the amazed at the  resourcefulness of the ground squirrels and chipmunks. Looking for hand outs!



We didn't get a 12 gun salute at the battery, but did overlook the harbor where once sail vessels came and went.  Now it the occasional tour vessel, high speed motorboats and yes... a plethora of sailing ship albeit much more modern!



It was mid afternoon and suited up we headed back to rte two but just a block or two away I decided to take the Trans Canada Highway instead.




Still hot but with a blustering wind blowing us around some.  I stopped at Bonshaw to cool off a wee bit, and wandered around a little in the back country, eventually arriving back home around 6 pm.





A fabulous day all together, Rode from Victoria street in Kensington, to Victoria park and on the return ride, stopped at the quaint little Victoria (by the sea)

Lots of "Victoria's" on PEI.
