Yeah! We made it home (PEI) safely on Tuesday, August 11. Our day began at 5:15 am so that we could catch the shuttle to be at Heathrow by 8:00, two hours before departure. Although the plane took off about 45 minutes late, we had a blessedly uneventful flight to Halifax. The day was overcast when we landed, but as we drove toward the northern coast of Nova Scotia the clouds moved out and it was a beautiful, sunny day thereon. One of the B&Bs that we like the best is Amherst Shore County Inn in Lorneville, Nova Scotia. So we had dinner there before we drove over the bridge to PEI. We arrived at the house about 11:00 pm, 3:00 am in London. We were a little tired.
On Wednesday we picked up the girls and took them for a walk on the Charlottetown boardwalk. It was another beautiful, sunny, breezy day. While we were away the dogs stayed at a kennel on the banks of the Hillsborough River where they could go swimming on occasion. I guess they must have liked the water because last night while we were hanging out in the backyard Dinah walked right into the little pond in our backyard, something neither dog has ever done before. The first time she did it we thought she had made a mistake, and we pulled her out. Then she stepped in again, and this morning Sophie took a little swim. They never cease to amaze us. We’re never sure what to expect from them. Anyway, we had a marvelous adventure in Scotland and England, but it is good to be back home in North America. I miss everybody!
