Each bearing only a pair of backpacks and an iPod, the entire 6-member Schock-Walls Clan makes a cross-Canada Trek. With regular appearances by family members, random friends, and the Little Blue Ass, this is our unfolding adventure as recorded in all its Hipstamatic glory.

getting here
Serejane, Mass, and especially Kaelan were super excited on the plane. Kaelan in fact is 100% sure he has already had the high point of his adventure. Serejane and Mads just giggled a lot during take off but I thought Kaelan might have an aneurysm, really. Bill and I slept and Wil got to play the role Kaelan usually suffers; motion sickness.
We picked up our rental van and took the scenic route down the NB coast to Confederation Bridge, and into PEI. Heather, I'm making Bill drive today so I can get pictures of the red earth and potatoes for you.
We checked into our suite and were going to go buy groceries then hit the drive-in but found a park and a restaurant and all passed out before getting any further. It's 6:30 local time, the sunrise was beautiful but it's time for me to go round up the troops for breakfast. We'll make a quick tour of Brackley so we can find a store to get bug dope and stock the fridge for supper before heading off to the Village at Avonlea then Cavendish Beach.
Later all!!!
