PEI Light And Sound Show

A couple standing right before us, watching the show. Charlottetown, PE

"Charlottetown Prince Edward Island- Canada's Birthplace; tells the story of this great nation like no other. Projected off of Province House- National Historic Site of Canada and set to Island authentic music, this show will captivate you with spectacular imagery and wonderful narration. Share the songs, stories, history and culture that have been told to Islanders for generations."

I think the show was very well put together. I believe most people were there by chance but I found it a nice way of ending our weekend. The show was bilingual and lasted (I believe) for about twenty minutes. We almost missed it as last night was the last night of the show!

For those of you who are interested, a video of the show is available on youtube:

Happy fall!

J and I decided to go hiking to welcome the fall and went to Hyde Park, in Cornwall.
I absolutely loved stomping on crispy leaves - made me feel so close to nature.
Nature is definitely growing on me...

Happy fall to all of yous!

How to pick apples - guide

J and I went apple picking last weekend in lower Montague, PE. Maple Farms Bert Haneveld & Son Apples offer Macintosh and Cortland apples - Cortland apples are for baking, Macintosh for eating.
It was a very nice way of spending our sunday afternoon and much more exciting than buying apples at the groceries store. J especially loved climbing trees and ladder - cute, eh? As for me, I baked my first apple pie. It was hard work (peel, core, slice) but very much worth it as the pie tasted absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend it and look forward to pumpkin picking for Halloween!

 1° Choose an apple farm.

               

 2° Make sure to stay in the right path or you will end up picking the wrong apples.

 3° Enjoy the beauty of Mother Nature.

4° Select firm and bruise-free apples and place them gently in your bag or basket. Don't wash your apples unless you are going to use them straight away.    

 5° Eat or bake to your liking.
