Prince Edward Island

We had a great time on Prince Edward Island. Jay had to visit dealers while we were there, so Arabella and I made our own fun at the hotel bu swimming in the pool and trying out the hot tub, which wasn't all that hot. It reminds me a lot of Cape Cod, the landscape is the same, the beaches are beautiful with the bluffs, small towns with little shops and restaurants, a little "touristy" in places, all the things that make it a wonderful place to visit. We had dinner each evening outside and Jay ate as much seafood as he could get! We had perfect weather, but it did get a little chilly at night, good thing we brought fleece jackets.









One afternoon, we spent time in Charlottetown, walking around, checking out the boats, enjoying ice cream and Arabella got to pick up a starfish, see crabs and lobsters (which she was afraid of).









The rest of our days were spent at the beach! I was happy about that and so was Arabella. Poor Jay, having 2 beach girls and he the beach is not his favorite place. Good thing we have a good sun shade for him to take refuge in and so he can check his email. Arabella loved digging holes, searching for crabs and shells, checking out the sand bars and playing in the water. She had fun running all over the beach and chasing sea gulls and just taking it all in. The beaches really reminded me of the ones in Westbrook and it made me realize that at the time, we had no idea how good we had it. While in PEI, each morning I had to think of every possible thing that we might need or want at the beach and pack it up, we then got in the car and drove to the beach, paid to park, and then trek everything to the beach and set up...it was so much simpler when we were younger just to run out the front door, cross the street and have our feet in the sand! But we had a great time and spent as much time as we could there. Arabella wouldn't take a nap since she didn't want to miss out on a second of the sunshine and sand.









































It was a very fun time and hopefully we will be able to go back...just next time, I think I might want to take a plane...
