    I was saving my 1000th review for something special - Finally checked off a bucket list travel item…read more- Green Gables!! I've had this spot on my list ever since I read the Anne of Green Gables novels when I was a young girl - and even more so since watching Anne with an E!! I loved the show so much I read all the books again afterwards lol. This actual homestead belonged to cousins of Lucy Maud Montgomery - author of all the Anne books - but it was her inspiration for the Anne universe and they've done a beautiful job decorating the inside to look just how I imagined it to look from the stories lol! LM Montgomery was one of the few female Victorian writers that found huge success in her work while still alive. Her homestead and gravesite are nearby and also definitely worth a visit - especially if you're a fan! She was quite an accomplished lady and had an interesting life. A lifelong dream location visited and it was more than I could've imagined!! I got to see Anne's bedroom, walk through the Haunted Wood, and they even sell Raspberry Cordial haha!! There are several walking trails on the grounds and I wish I had time to explore more bc they were lovely. It's easy to find, prices are very reasonable, staff are all very friendly, and there's lots to see apart from the house - they have a nice museum and LM Montgomery's gravesite and actual homestead are within easy walking distance but also a very quick drive. Pro Tip: entrance to LM Montgomery's homestead is cheaper if you buy it in the combo ticket with Green Gables and you can buy both here. They also have a little cafe here selling mostly pastries and coffee. Plenty of parking and clean restrooms. This stop is a favorite with the giant tour buses so bring your patience.

    I pretty much waited my whole life to come here after reading the books. It did not disappoint. I…read moregot to have a raspberry cordial and walked down lovers lane with the love of my life, my beautiful wife. She used to be a tour guide in Nova Scotia and was excited to take me to this place where she had been before and I had never set foot. On an island that was all new to me. We spend as much time here as we wanted to the visitor center first and then coming out back to see the house where LM Montgomery spent a lot of time after she wrote the first book less than a mile away. We also visited that site and her grave. This was the most impressive place we went. The musical in Halifax was also outstanding. But I felt a kinship to Anne here, even though she is a fictional character. This place is absolutely special and if you're a fan of the book or the author, you should visit. Plan at least two hours to not feel rushed. They have a lovely gift shop and the items there are priced fairly.

    This place had so many cute local made gifts and also we got a super yummy seasonal coffee!…read moreDefinitely recommend stopping here. We ended up getting food somewhere else but some of their food looked delicious!

    This museum is sorely in need of a technological update. Opened in 2001, it contains a walkthrough…read moretour of Canada's history of confederation. While the information is interesting, the tour is run with earphones that contain a radio receiver. Each stop is transmitted continuously in one direction. This means that if you are not standing in the correct spot, or turn your head away from the display, you get earfulls of static. The headset is also heavy and uncomfortable because of the receiver. Additionally, many of the touch-screen displays aren't functioning. Finally, the tour theme is a journalist's view of confederation there had been journalists that were crosses between a tongue-in-cheek CBC reporter and the Royal Canadian Air Force. It was just too light an atmosphere for these important events. I've been to many museums, both in Canada and abroad. With digital techonology, they can now set tracks at each station, and have tourists dial in their stop number in a digital player, rather than continuously running on radio-waves. This would prevent having to listen to the back-half of an event, wait for it to restart, and then listen to the front-half. On the bright side, it's an informative (if superficial) tour of Canada's confederation years.

    Panmure Island Lighthouse boasts two firsts on PEI - this is PEI's first octagonal lighthouse (a…read morerarity in lighthouse shapes apparently) AND it's PEI's first wooden lighthouse! And here's an even more fun factoid - it was built back in 1853 without using a single nail!! We had so much fun exploring here - the lighthouse is an architectural beauty with interesting museum exhibits on each floor as you ascend to the tower. They have a lovely display of different fresnel lenses - even a 4th order beehive fresnel which I loved! There are four levels with four flights of stairs - each getting progressively more narrow and steep as you make your way up - but it's totally worth the climb. The last flight of stairs is more like a wooden ladder so it's best to go very slowly and be sure to descend backwards - much easier this way and much more safe. The tower views are magnificent!! You get almost a 360° vista of where the entrance to Cardigan Bay meets the Georgetown Harbour! This is still very much a functional lighthouse so be careful while in the tower bc it's very bright when it goes off and probably not good for your eyes lol. The gift shop on the ground floor is full of works from local artists and great for souvenirs. Prices are reasonable in the gift shop and the entry price for the lighthouse is excellent! Staff are very welcoming, knowledgeable, and happy to share info about the building as well as the area. There's a small unpaved parking area with some port-a-potties at the entrance. They also have a large wooden deck with 5-6 picnic tables right on the water - a great place to relax and enjoy the views after your climb - and you can admire the beautiful horses in the field next door! The lighthouse is open seasonally from mid June to mid October. Storm clouds rolled in towards the end of our visit and made for some very dramatic and beautiful photo ops! All in all one of my fave lighthouse experiences during my Nova Scotia adventures - highly recommend!
