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.

... 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.
