Green Gables

Our first full day on Prince Edward Island we visited Green Gables Heritage Park which has the house where Anne of Green Gables grew up. It also has lots of information about the author of the books, Lucy M. Montgomery. It was very interesting to read about her life and see how much of herself she put into her character Anne. But first, here are a couple pictures of Gavin feeding Avery!

Taking the Haunted Wood Trail

Golf Course crossing

After touring the Green Gables house, we decided to check out the Haunted Woods trail. It's supposed to be similar to the one in the PBS show although this one is now bisected by a golf course!

We also spent some time walking around Charlottetown, which is the biggest city on Prince Edward Island. They had lots of shops and restaurants.

Then we had to check out a Toy Store that had some cool toys but also a very fun play area in their "backyard". Gavin had a great time checking out all the fun stuff!
