Playing in P.E.I.


Rianna is all set to go for a buggy ride in Avonlea!  There are many different Anne of Green Gables attractions in Cavendish.  The Village of Avonlea is a recreation of a village from this time.  There were exhibits on soap making, quilting, basket weaving and tons of artifacts from this time.  Their collection of old photographs was amazing.  Lucy Maude Montgomery was also a photographer and took many pictures of her family, friends, and buildings.  There was one building where we were able to dress up and take pictures and Rianna was in her element!!






On the northwest corner of the island in a town called
Kensington, there is a haunted mansion tourist attraction.  It is open all year round, and has special events around Halloween.  It is  a really cool looking house, and the special effects are scary and hokey at the same time!  The kids did not enjoy it quite as much as David and I.  The back of the house though had extensive gardens and a stream, an elevated tree top walk and fountains.  It was great!
