Best Western Charlottetown Hotel

We awake early after a rough stormy night at sea. Spray washed all the way onto our balcony up on Deck 11 but the ship must have a good crew and a good design as the trip is quite smooth. It is misty and trying to snow as we cruise past expensive house situated on the red sand beaches of PEI. We decided to check out an Anne shop, a knitting shop then a shopping centre. A large passenger facility is located immediately ...

Die Insel hat drei 'Rundfahrten' zu bieten. Den North Cape Coastal Drive, welche wie der Name sagt, den Norden der Insel abdeckt. Den Central Coastal Drive, für die Mitte sowie den East Coastal Drive für den Osten. <br><br>Wir machten uns auf den Weg, um den East Coastal Drive zu erkunden. Als erstes legten wir bei Greenwich National Park einen Stopp ein. Dieser ist er seit 1998 Teil des Nationalparkes. Der Dünenweg wurde uns im Reiseführer empfohlen. Die Holzplankenwege f ...

... nse machen sich für den Abflug Richtung Süden bereit und sammeln sich. Wieviele Gänse angeflogen kamen, wissen wir nicht, es waren seeeeehr viele!<br><br>Im kleinen Fischerdörfchen North Rustico Harbour machten wir am Mittag einen Zwischenhalt. Leider war hier, wie an vielen Orten auf der Insel, bereits fast alles geschlossen. Die Hauptsaison ist ...

... merkt man sofort, dass alles auf das touristische Ziel 'Anne of the Green Gables' ausgerichtet ist. Vielleicht haben ein paar von euch diese Geschichte in den Jugendjahren auch gelesen. Es steht hier ein Haus mit grünen Giebeln, das wie in der Romanhandlung eingerichtet wurde. Wir haben darauf verzichtet, es zu besuchen. Der Eintritt ist überrissen, und bieten tut es wenig. Auf jeden Fall sind die Japaner hier zahlreich vertreten. Schliesslich ist es deren 4. Lieblingsreiseziel.

... and drove off. When we came back to the eighteenth green a couple of hours later the crows had somehow retrieved the apple from the bin and were just finishing the remains.<br><br>The seventeenth hole at Crowbush is a design never seen before. You climb about thirty feet up to the top of a sand dune to get to the tee box. From this vantage you can just make out the top of the flag on the seventeenth green waving above the intervening herbage from another dune ...

... a stop light, or in a restaurant where the waitress wasn&#8217;t sure whether to call the cops or what. Luigi was to accompany us for the balance of our trip and could often be heard jabbering away about something or other on our radios.<br><br>.<br><br>Not having been blessed with daughters I was not fully up on the Anne of Green Gables legend, although we had seen an inspired musical version featuring niece Clare earlier in the summer. That orientation was ...

... bears come to pick nuts from the beech trees&#8217;) to pick up some groceries for the week. We agreed on meals for the week and all put in some money and got stuff to share as it works out a lot cheaper and simpler. Then we went to a beach and had a picnic lunch and a swim. The water was really warm, it was so great! It was a bay so it&#8217;s a bit sheltered and there&#8217;s been so many hot days lately- beaches aren&#8217;t usually ever that warm here. Most beaches around here ...

... spot to wait for a lift. I had the ocean on my right, a lake and farmland on my left. Not much else going on. As per usual in these types of areas the traffic seems to be all old men who look angered by your presence. Some of them would point to the right I'm assuming indicating they were taking the next exit. Well apparently the same guy drove by twice because he adamantly pointed to the right with an extreme fervor as if to say, "DUH I SAID THAT LAST TIME." Bless him, he ...

... boyband Blue, Johnny Depp, David Hasselhoff and Adam Levine took place amongst much hilarity. Jorga was particulary impressed on hearing about the Hoff calendar... The foreign theme continued with a French film before bed - 12 of us sat around making up our own script as it went along. Ahh - jolly times abound in Charlottetown. The hostel was amazing, the Island was beautiful and I met some great people. A shame to leave but Halifax beckoned the next day.
