Anne of Green Gables


Our camp site from the previous night was not ideal as it had been a mammoth effort to negotiate the surrounding flora so we decided to move to another camp just around the corner. This later proved to be a good choice as the WiFi worked well and the site was readily accessed even in the dark. We made our way to Avonlea, The Village of Anne of Green Gables and while it is set up exclusively as a tourist venture it is quite well done and worth the visit. Our joint Scottish heritage prevented us from making anything more than a modest investment into the P.E.I tourism economy. We caught a trolley that does a circuit around Cavendish for the princely sum of $3, allowing you to get on and off when ever you please at no extra cost. This gave us a little more insight into the local surroundings.
