minute drive 40 minute drive to an

island itself we're not going to that

roundabout 16 the first exit

very foggy today

and the destination is on your left

the destination is on your left

Jilla de la boutique arrived we arrived

here

[Music]

it is called la vie

[Applause]

[Music]

current oyster situation car noise your

situation is as we found the oyster farm

that does not actually serve oysters but

they let us know the case let's just say

that Dinah Lester was not my friend not

like that I start yes speak but she was

very polite she's very nice let us taste

but she's sending us to a restaurant

called the plague

I don't think that's

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

the destination is on your exit not posh

so I learned something very important

about myself today that I never knew

while I say that I love oysters I don't

love oysters I don't love all wasters I

only like oysters from where Canada

I like Canadian oysters which specific

oyster Prince Edward Island's don't like

French oysters don't like Pacific

oysters I don't think I like Gulf

oysters but she talks about oysters man

there's a lot always you're talking not

too much moister action Wow there was

action I forced myself to eat them

sampling I was gonna buy five dozen and

I'm really glad I didn't we had six and

then we'll some very hard to eat six

oysters not six dozen oysters yes and so

there's that but now I know you know

we'll never make this mistake again our

route see what happens

Oh carrion oyster oyster boat that's

creepy

all right we've made it us bad thing

let's go there all right well I am

pretty convinced that everybody says

that they don't like oysters just

haven't had the right eye stirs because

if those were the only oysters I've ever

had I probably never have them again

got a try the ones from Prince Edward

Island are the best ones only ones

everything else is

David you thought they were salty that's

because i salted it lemon to them an

effort to make them edible

oh no they had a flavor and it was nasty

roundabout take the third exit day 26

yeah I'm

very sad buy a box of them but you like

them better than I do I like them better

than the west coast of the US the

Pacific oysters those golf like slimy

bad fish these were like I just like the

flavor but they're mark but these were

better than these are worse than Gulf

oysters and North northeastern oysters

in general on the u.s. it's a little d26

for one kilometer I thought it was like

out in the middle of the ocean

for one this is not the ocean while the

water looks like they even open up the

locks not the maintained

well we just drove across the bridge to

the island over here ILD island

something out her and we saw a sign for

a chateau and then we saw a sign for a

citadel so we're at the citadel we can't

quite figure out how to get to the

chateau everything's a one-way street

I'm gonna go check this out real quick

the tide is completely out all the boats

are sitting on the mud I guess this is

what Laura Shaw would be like if they

didn't have the locks

[Music]

[Music]

somebody front or what sucks
