Hi
I used to be a regular but left for a bit. Now I am back, Wow did I miss this place. After reading some old posts I laughed and thought You all are so wonderful. What a community !

I am going to PEI Canada next week, I need to know a good place or two to eat also Where I can check my e-mails. I heard I can try the Library, but are there any Cafe's of coffee shops?
I belong to an Anderson Cooper group. (I know I am pitiful as you all rush to see what a goober looks like but alas..... no photo. I can't live without my daily fix (Of Anderson) or the clubhouse.
I really appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Susan

Susan, a friend of mine bought his mom a really great book on the Canadian East Coast for her recent trip. I'll try to get the title for you and post it here - it was great, had maps, recommendations for hotels/restaurants, etc.

While you are in PEI, check out the Lobster Dinners. They are all over the place. A number of churchs up near Rustico and Cavandish Beaches have Lobster Dinners at least once a week (probably more). Great food, and a fun way to meet the locals.

My Mom told me no Lobstering during the month of July in PEI (She spent summers up there as a child)
That's OK I live in Maine. As soon as September rolls in, and the prices go down I will eat like a pig !!!!
Nutsy thanks for the heads up. I appreciate the info

The one thing I want to buy is a straw hat with red braids just like Anne wore. Two of my sisters are going with me we are all going to buy them.
Since I have red hair I think they will match.
I will post a picture !!!

who knew this thread is where i would find you! sorry i missed you to wish you a great trip.. hope you are having a great time! My fantasy is to move to St. Johns N.B. even tho i have never been there! Are you driving thru or flying? Are you still at the old email address? cuz i will try to dig it up if you are..if you do find a way to get online, you could try chowhounds.com for places to eat..its a website for restaurant recmmendations from people who go for non-pretentious, non-chain good food, and i think they cover Canada..
'see' ya when you get back!

Hey,

I'm right in Charlottetown. I've lived here for 12 years, originally from Nova Scotia, but now I'll never live anywhere else. I'm glad you liked our island :)

I went to Charlottetown twice once to buy tickets the other time to see the show What show you ask? Anne of Green Gables. (which I saw in 1970, 1977 and this year) We also shopped and.... went to the University of PEI for tee shirts and stuff I was so happy I will be back next year. My family is now in Summerside. their Last name is Peters
