P.E.I. Cont.!

Given that PEI is an island filled with different waterways, there are many, many bridges. This one is a foot bridge near the french side of the island.

 The only thing that I knew about Prince Edward Island, before I went, was that there was the "Confederation Bridge" linked it to New Brunswick. 

 The bridge is Nearly thirteen Kilometres long and is Canada's Longest Bridge.

 Red Shores...
 The Doucet House, one of the oldest houses, if not the oldest, on the Island. Parts were built during the seventeen hundreds, but some of it had been restored.
 Now part of the "Farmers Bank of Rustico" The Doucet house serves to educate people on traditional Acadian Living.
 Apparently Large cruise ships like this are not uncommon in Charlottetown, a city with a population of only thirty thousand.

Near Cavendish.

Having never seen Sand Dunes, and Tidal pools, going to Cavendish on my second last day with my Nana and Uncle was a real highlight of my trip. This was taken at Cavendish Beach, with the tidal pools in the foreground and the Dunes in the back.
The water Within the Tidal Pools was so clear, I could hardly believe there was water there at all....

 The Boardwalk leading into the dunes and the beach from the parking lot can just be seen at the top. Although there was no trail through where we walked, we had to make our way over the rocks and tidal pools to get to here.
 Behind the dunes, they are covered in a grass that helps to keep them safe from the elements. This grass is actually very fragile and walking on the dunes, and the grass, is prohibited in order to protect them.

It seems that Inukshuk building was very popular on the Island, likely due to the large amount of tourists.

Red sand means Red cliffs!


Green Gables! This house was the house that the story Anne Of Green Gables took place in. As not many of us had read the books, we decided to not take the tour, surrendering that it would likely have little meaning to us and would therefore be dull...
