PEI is the smallest of the Canadian provinces and is quite unlike any other.  It has a beautiful beach and resort area on the north coast which is apparently full of tourists during the summer months - in fact, tourism is the main industry in the province.

Things to See and Do

The government has set up a series of driving tours which will take you around the whole of the island.  We drove along one of these, the most popular, which was quite interesting.  The island is very pretty..except for the horrible tourist cabins they have built all over the place, even in the middle of fields!

In the short time we were there we did the following things:

- reached PEI by driving across the new 14 km long Confederation Bridge which connects the province to mainland Nova Scotia
- drove through the ultra touristy north coast area
- spent the night in Charlottetown at a beautiful B&B called Fitzroy Hall (phone 902-368-2077)
