"Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world.

It wouldn't be half so interesting if we know all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?" -Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

A few weeks ago my family went to eastern Canada and Prince Edward Island where LM Montgomery, the author of Anne of Green Gables was from and used as the setting for almost all of her books. PEI is very proud of their biggest literary site/tourist attraction in general. It was so beautiful there.

They even sold these:

don't worry, I will never dye my hair red or ever make that face again.

This is one of the many people who wore those insane hats for real. And for real I mean they actually spent money on them instead of just taking ugly pictures in the gift store.

This is the house that inspired Montgomery's Green Gables house. Perfect, right? It was her aunt's or something.

And beautiful sisters Rachel and Lauren, and wonderful mother Kathryn.

This is the Lake of Shining Waters. It's real. We also walked through the
Haunted Forest and Lover's Lane

This is my laundry hanging out to dry at our B&B after we went swimming.
Whitney, thought of you.

Also, Lauren insisted that we take these pictures. We're pretending to be drunk after pretending to have drunk currant wine instead of raspberry cordial.
