We left Toronto for PEI shortly after 06:00. We picked up Moira in Kingston.
It was raining fierce in much of the Ontario stretch, but it got clearer and warmer in Quebec. We had lunch at Burger King in St. Hyacinthe.
We've started listening to an audio CD of Marilynne Robinson's novel Gilead, which is quite remarkable. And we heard Imperial Ambitions, a CD of interviews with Noam Chomsky. (We also listened to CDs of Gershwin, Verdi choruses and Martha Reeves & the Vandellas. I've brought along several that I bought in recent years but didn't get around to listening to.)
We drove around the clock and made it to Edmundston! (How does Father do it?) We had dinner at Pizza Delight--I had the spaghetti supreme--and stayed at the Ritz Motel, which exists mostly for the ski trade and has a Googie-style sign!
