3 flights of stairs, post-marathon shower, quick one-hour nap.  Attic B&B kinda loses its charm after running 26 miles.  Just saying.  LOL>

Historic homes, old churches, seaside path ‘round Government House (home to PEI’s Lieutenant Governor).  From there walked inland, downtown Charlottetown.  City Hall, University Park, St. Dunstan’s Basilica.  HUGE fan of cathedral architecture.  Gothic block buildings, high overreaching arches, stained glass artistry.  Oft adapts character of the city you’re visiting.  Ornate ship anchor molding in this provincial capital’s church home.  Quiet/peaceful/hushed/stunning.  Great place to reflect & give thanks.

Dinner reservations at 5; theatre tickets 7 o’clock show.

But first, homage paid to everything Anne – at the Anne of Green Gables Store.  Dolls, DVDs, postcards, magnets, candy, entire book series (of course) – all centered on the red-headed orphan from PEI.  When on Prince Edward, gotta/hafta/must.

Sunday-nite FOOD FEAST @ 23 Queen St: half-dozen Oysters, Cioppino entrée.  FIVE LOCAL varieties of Oyster.  Tomato herb broth, crusty bread.  Mussels, haddock, clams & shrimp – Cioppino, what’s not to LOVE?  GET in my BELLY!  WOW meal.

LOVE LOVED ‘Anne & Gilbert’ at the Guild.  Perfect Avonlea finish to crazy FULL day.  Highly recommended!

Goodbye PEI.  Lighthouse sunrise, hot B&B breakfast, noon flight off the Island.  I HEART the Land of Anne ❤️
