Prince Edward Island


     

PEI is a special place.


The rolling hills, farmland, and sandy beaches,

 offer the best of both worlds.

In almost every rural scene, there is a sliver of blue ocean on the horizon,

and after every walk on the beach,

there is a drive home along pastures dotted with cows and horses.


Travel to PEI can be done via the Confederation Bridge,

or by the ferry that sails across the Northumberland Straight.

It is unexplainably lovely being over the water,

and especially moving,

as the picturesque transition between the two ribbons of land,

seems to make time stand still.


PEI is ethereal for vacationers.

It has that divine sense of being set apart,

the stillness and allure of an island,

 away from the rest of the world,

where quiet, red sandy roads are lined with patches of purple lupins,

and on the crest of every hill,

there is a glimpse of the lapis-blue sea.


Days on PEI can be filled with visits to the many artisan shops,

where newly spun wool, knitting and knick-knacks,

are interlaced with culinary treats.

 

You just can’t go home without a red-clay-dyed T-shirt,

a carving of a foam-green seagull,

new favourite foods,

 and bunches of warm memories.


The painting of PEI was done @1995,

and re-done with art-based software.

The music is from SHUTTERSTOCK.
