Fearing that the swarms of biting gnats might still be present, I packed up everything possible before venturing outside the tent in the morning. My suspicions were confirmed when they ambushed me just as soon as I stepped outside. Camp was broken in near record time and as I pulled away there were still a few crawling around inside the helmet with a meal on their minds.
After riding for an hour I stopped to eat breakfast and shortly thereafter rode through Dartmouth/Halifax. Then the storm hit. It rained heavily for the rest of the ride to Yarmouth so there were no photos taken this day. The rainsuit liner for the riding suit worked well and kept me completely dry.
I went straight to the ferry terminal upon arrival in Yarmouth and purchased a ticket for the next day. Then I ate a very late lunch and checked into a room as it was still raining.
