We traveled through New Brunswick across the Confederation Bridge, a curved 8 mile long bridge, the longest in the world crossing ice-covered water which was just completed in 1997, to reach Prince Edward Island.(PEI) Prince Edward Island is located off the eastern coast of Canada, between the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Québec and Newfoundland and Labrador in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

As we drove towards PEI National Park, I couldn’t get over how lush the island was and how beautiful. We bought local potatoes, which were so creamy and beets that were incredibly fresh. Almost as good as the seafood! The beaches are so numerous and each so different, I don’t think I’ve ever seen sandstone beaches before. What a treat to have such beautiful beaches and minimal houses.








We loved Novia Scotia too, saw our first moose, pilots whales, and have enjoyed following Alexander Graham Bell more since visiting his home. The bridge to PEI has to have really helped locals and tourism, although the ferry was fun. Our kids loved it being the “New Potato Capital of the World”. They wanted to know what happened when they got old! Enjoy!
