Default ON to NB and PEI

Hi all,

Had a reccie trip back in march, visited Toronto and the Georgian triangle and hopped on a plane over to BC and spent a few days on the Island and in Van. I liked what I saw and have booked a trip to Toronto for the last 2 weeks in September. I will be taking my partner this time to sell her on the idea.

We've been looking at NB and PEI. What I want to know is if it is feasible to drive up to have a look round NB and PEI from Toronto and still see enough in 2 weeks taking in ON as well without needing another holiday when we get back! My personal swaying is for ON or BC (already had a loose job offer in Victoria).

Is NB and PEI worth a butchers? Any PEI or NB dwellers want to sell it to us?

Thanks

Tim

Here's a good mileage counter website that'll will help on a driving holiday. Often its not the long drive there thats the problem its the drive back.

You may decide on an internal flight instead and could have a look at Westjet for reasonably priced flights.

Thanks for confirming what I was thinking. Don't really want to spend 2 days on the road there and 2 days back! Especially as there's limited work as a Harley mechanic in those provinces. Think I'll concentrate on Ontario and save the Atlantics for a look another time.

Tim
