Looking for Info on PEI?
Hi...
We recently joined this forum, and in my wandering about, I noticed that there were no posts to the thread on Prince Edward Island. I moved to PEI in 1972 from Wisconsin and have lived there ever since. I am currently retired, and my wife has recently achieved Permanent Resident status in Canada. We have a lake house in PEI where we spend 6-7 months, and we usually head for warmer climes in the American Southwest after Christmas.
If you are planning a trip to PEI or any of the Atlantic Provinces, please feel free to contact us...we'll try to steer you in the right direction!

Weclome to the forums. Sorry to say it will be at least another 6 years (that's when I can retire) before we can get that far away from home. Until then post some pictures for us to dream about....

Just to follow up on my original post...here is my web album site that has pictures from all over (curiously, not a lot of PEI!) www.picasaweb.google.com/piscesman1946 and here is the URL for the official tourism website for PEI http://www.tourismpei.com/index.php3 which has many photos online. Be sure to request a copy of the free Visitors' Guide. Will give you something to dream about!

We are from Ontario. We were in P.E.I. last summer. Had a blast, one on the best parts of our trip. 14 days, 5000 km. I've attached some pics, maybe you can guess where they are! Loved it!

Where were these photos taken?
OK...I'll take a shot!
1) Could be almost any beach shot at low tide...but I'll say the South Shore...maybe Lord Selkirk Park?
2) Tough...potato sack race...near Kensington?
3) Road to New Glasgow
4) Ferry to/from Nova Scotia
Glad you enjoyed your visit!!

The first pic is near Southport Rv park, a beach we found wandering around. The second pic is at Anne of Green Gables (which the wife, kids and even I really enjoyed). The third pic is the road to the ferry, county road 23... The last picture is us on the ferry leaving Wood Islands to Nova Scotia.
Speaking of Southport Rv park You camp on the shoreline! That is the bridge to charlottetown
I'm sure we only saw 1/10th of anything... We can't wait to go back!

My wife and I are heading out for PEI this Saturday for a week. We will be staying at Vacationland. I do have a quick question maybe you can answer for me. Due to a mix up, we are not booked into our camp site until Sunday and we are thinking of driving over Saturday and perhaps camping out at a Walmart for the night then doing our shopping for food and stuff on Sunday rather than haull all the extra weight. My question is we are going to take the bridge across and we are wondering if there is any place close by around that area where we could add some water to our holding tank for the night for coffee in the morning and flushing washing up until we get to our site? Also, other than Walmart is there any other places maybe a little more appropriate to park overnight for free?
