Prince Edward Island







We arrived Tuesday evening after a little over an 11 hour drive. The drive to Cavendish was very rural until we arrive in Cavendish which is a definite tourist destination. Cavendish is the setting for the Anne of Green Gables books and from that attraction many other tourist attractions have developed. For dinner I enjoyed mussels and bacon wrapped scallops which Zeke and Kristi also sampled.

Wednesday we enjoyed Avonlea - a great little recreation of the Anne of Green Gable book. They have three restored building from the area that were apart of the author Maude Montgomery's life along with additional building to represent those of Anne's life. It was like a living history site with little shows throughout the day from the book. We all enjoyed a fun day. For dinner I enjoyed Atlantic salmon and Zeke had a lobster burger. The day ended with swimming for the kids as it was too cold for the adults.
