Ellen & Dan’s Excellent Adventure in Nova Scotia – Day 6

Today was Anne of Green Gables all day, all the time.

For those of you who haven’t read the books (I haven’t) nor seen the TV shows/movies (I only vaguely remember them) it might be a wonder that a fictional character has this kind of impact. I think that LM Montgomery, who wrote the books, was so strongly associated with Prince Edwards Island (all but one of the books was located at PEI) and local pride; there is lots of that we have learned helped.Ellen & Dan’s Excellent Adventure in Nova Scotia – Day 6

Ellen and Dan’s Excellent Adventure in Nova Scotia – Day 1

Ellen had long expressed an interest in visiting Prince Edwards Island, the site of the Anne of Green Gables stories, and nearly Nova Scotia. I had always heard it was a very beautiful place to visit, the high’s were going to be in the 70’s, not the 90’s, and going would be consistent with my saying yes to as much as possible so Ellen would let me continue to go to Disneyworld once every two years.Ellen and Dan’s Excellent Adventure in Nova Scotia – Day 1
