Mellow Days

August 21st, 2008

Yesterday didn’t have the same level of excitement as Tuesday, which was good! I took a wander around the downtown where they’ve kept many of the historic buildings. It’s a beautiful place and I got a few photos on my flickr account. The weather was a little dreary so I didn’t take many shots, but I like the ones I got. 

I also wandered through the Province House, which is where the Charlottetown Conference of 1864 occurred to start the road towards Canada’s Confederation. It’s also the provincial legislature and it was neat to learn about that process.

In the evening we all headed to my Aunt’s parents place for dinner and I managed to stuff myself to the breaking point. Naturally I took down a large slice of coconut cream pie.

Today I’m heading out with my uncle Oliver and cousin Andrew to check out a windmill research station on the west coast of the island. The drive is supposed to be beautiful and I’m going to grab some photos, especially of the large green lawns that are a standard feature throughout the island.

    The windmills are awesome! That’s where we had a fox sneak up on us, scaring both itself and us. At least when we were there we were told that a family lived there, so you might get lucky and see one.

    Cheers!
