Prince Edward Island, Acadia Natl Park and In-Laws!

I had a wonderful week long vacation to Prince Edward Island and Acadia National Park. I arrived in Portland, Maine via a very very early airplane. I was picked up three very cheery ladies, namely my in-laws Momma K, Christy and Patricia. Off we headed in the Sonata on an adventure.

Prince Edward Island was beyond description. A small Canadian province with a population of only 130,000, but it was not small in breathtaking views and nice people. We did so many things! We drove to the east point, watched sunsets, ate good food, saw some good shows, saw great art, saw Anne's house, visited a brewery and went sea kayaking. And that wasn't even all we did! It was beautiful, relaxing and full of great memories.

Then, Thursday we moved on and drove down to Bar Harbor, Maine. We drove along the coast of New Brunswick and stopped for lunch in the Bay of Fundy. (Never heard of the Bay of Fundy? Me neither until this trip. Check it out, it's a really neat place. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_of_Fundy) We arrived in Acadia and had a nice dinner at McKay's Public House. The restaurant was not really of note except I happened to have one of the best chicken dishes there that I have ever eaten, Cinnamon Speckled Chicken. Friday and Saturday we did a ranger activity, watched "What Not to Wear", hiked, watched sunrises and generally enjoyed our last days together. Back home on Sunday and the end to a wonderful and memorable vacation. PS. Thanks to my in-laws for inviting me along :)
