Welcome to Prince Edward Island

On Tuesday, we flew into Prince Edward Island. Even though it doesn’t look very far on the map, it took us hours to fly across Canada! Canada is a VERY BIG country! Do you know which is bigger, Canada or Australia? We left Vancouver late on Monday night travelled all through the night while you were all tucked up in bed and arrived in PEI by Tuesday morning.
PEI is also very beautiful! The gorgeous colours of fall make the island look like everything is painted with a big paint brush.
PEI reminds me of some places in Australia that also has deep red soil due to having lots of iron in the soil.
Have you heard of the classic tale of fiction, 'Anne of Green Gables'? Although the place in the story was fictitious and made up by the author Lucy Maud Montgomery, she used the house in this picture to inspire her story. It was a house she used to play in when she was a little girl.

Nice pictures Miss Cervenjak! These should help the 3/4s with their study of the regions of Canada :) Looks like you're having a good time seeing more of Canada than most of the locals have! :0.
