October 18 - Charlottetown

My friend, Shirley, says that life on a cruise ship is quite decadent, and I think she is right.  Good food, good entertainment, and no responsibilities - what could be better!  There are also great places to see on the way.

Today we are in Charlottetown, the birthplace of confederation, and of course, home of the fabled Anne of Green Gables.  We were in Charlottetown five years ago at the height of the summer. and I found walking around the city a little difficult.  At that time the crowds were out in full force.  Now in the fall it is quiet and we have a full day to explore the city at our leisure without the crowds.  People have been friendly and it is relatively easy to find our way around. 

The first picture with this post shows me standing with my white cane beside the welcome sign at the port. The second is "Sue of Green Gables"!
