If you want to do PEI, and you want to take both the ferry and the bridge, enter PEI on the bridge and leave on the ferry.

This costs more than doing the bridge, but the bridge only charges you going one way (leaving PEI, not coming).

I took the Ferry from PEI, then drove to cape breton & saw the sights. (unfortunetally, a migrane cut my cape breton trip short...)

Oh, and remember, on Cape Breton (espeically the remote parts), try to speak French to the locals if you know the language. That area is where the acadian diaspora came from (the forefathers of the lousiana cajuns are from cape breton, IIRC).

If you like military history/old forts, there are alot around Halifax. Everything from state-of-the-art 19th century up to WW2 fortifications.
