What a beautiful day this was. I didn’t think that Green Gables could be topped, but the drive around PEI might have done it. We had set aside one day to see as many lighthouses as we could. The fog got a little ridiculous throughout the day, something the locals told us was uncommon. I guess I should be glad that this wasn’t 200 years ago. Because I’m pretty sure if some strange woman (me) wandered onto someone’s island bringing a dark cloud of fog that swept over the entire landscape, she’d soon find herself at the bottom of a lake.
Here we go, our day driving around the island:
These bikers stopped in front of us to wait out the fog.
These folks were drying their Canadian flag in their backyard.
You see that fog? It’s creepin’ on in.
We were kinda up in a lot of people’s driveways. You never knew where you were going on this map.
I took a sea shell from this beach. Shh.
Anne fans, recognize this hotel?
Think back to Anne of Green Gables: The Sequel (or Anne of Avonlea, as it was marketed in the States)…
Certainly not a canonical scene from the books, but beautiful nonetheless.
After driving past Dalvay-by-the-Sea, we went on to Charlottetown to have dinner. I can’t remember the name of the place, but it was a little pub that we stopped by. There were hardly any people there (or anywhere) and I was still having some trouble figuring out the schedule these people live on. This establishment at least had a few people sitting outside enjoying their dinners though. It looked promising. Being that we weren’t locals and it felt ridiculously cold to us outside, we chose to dine indoors.
Kevin started with a crabcake.
And I went with the sashimi, which was pretty, but a mistake. Way, way too warm.
Now, for some reason I didn’t end up with pictures of our dinner, but I had this ENORMOUS bowl of mussels in a tomatoey brine and Kevin had…a burger.
Back to the resort we went for our last night in that huge room, with the daunting drive ahead of us the following day. Blech.
And since you made it all the way to the end, here’s a fun surprise:
