Ice Floes In The Strait


A winter crossing of the Confederation Bridge - our first since arriving on Prince Edward Island last summer.
 

Although not completely frozen, the Northumberland Strait still had quite a lot of ice floes, which move with the tides.


The cloud formations were dramatic, too.


Looking back towards the PEI shore.
 
 
It may be March, but winter isn’t letting go of its icy grip yet. 
 
   
These photos were taken on the return crossing, close to dusk. 
 
 
 I loved the colours of the pinks and purples as the sun was setting behind us.  For me, these are the colours of PEI.
     
 
The sunset photos continued, but I will save the rest for another post.

    1. It was cold, but not as bad as some days have been. The ice is still hanging around, though. Marie x

    1. The sky and the colours were stunning. The cold is becoming more difficult to handle, the longer it continues. Marie x
