We sailed into Prince Edward Island (or as it's known, PEI). Regis and Kelly were there from the ABC morning show. The place was crawling with people. We avoided that and took the Anne of Green Gables tour. The tour guide was amazing and despite my expectations, it was one of the most enjoyable experiences. The island was beautiful with rolling hills. Apparently the Irish are heavy in the area because it looks like Ireland (so the guide said).
The island revolves around Lucy Maud Montgomery (author of Anne of Green Gables). They do have quite a bit of agricultural stuff but I didn't fly 2000 miles to see cropland. Their corn was only planted in June because if you plant before that it will freeze. That's right. Freezing in May/June. Insane. They grow a lot of potatoes. They also have beautiful fields of canola.
Even the Anne stuff was nice.
I would definitely go there again.
next stop... Sydney
