Everything Else I Did In Prince Edward Island

You know the drill. Here are all the other things I saw and did on my trip to Prince Edward Island that I did not already cover in my previous PEI posts, but first, I have some general thoughts about the province.

Prince Edward Island is a windy place, considering the island is just off the ocean. Every time I would get out of my car to go see a lighthouse, the constant gust of wind hits my body. In many of the videos I share on my PEI posts, there is always this howling wind that muffles any sound. Also, Prince Edward Island is a mostly rural place. The few cities on this island are not particularly big, and most of the island is hills and farmland. The drives were mostly boring and not as fun as driving in Nova Scotia.

PEI's Beach And Lighthouse Tour

On my Prince Edward Island vacation, I spent much of my time driving around visiting different beaches and lighthouses. Although I did not visit every single beach and lighthouse on the island, I visited enough of them where I could detail it all in a blog post. I did not realize there were so many lighthouses on the island, and I want to show you what I found.

Remembering The Simpsons: Hit & Run

The Simpsons have had a weird history with video games. The first Simpsons video game was the arcade game in the early 1990s, and then there were many mediocre releases throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. As I was growing up, I managed to play a couple of these bad games at the turn of the millennium. I remember The Simpsons Wrestling on the PS1, which was horrible to play. I also played a bit of The Simpsons: Road Rage, which was a Crazy Taxi clone. The game was not terrible, but I would not call the game good at all. 

It Was A Rainy Day In Charlottetown

While I was in Prince Edward Island, I stayed in Downtown Charlottetown, and I want to dedicate a post to my wanderings in this place. Charlottetown is not actually a town, but rather a city, and wandering around this city felt like walking through a small city in Ontario, such as Kitchener or St. Catharines. I still got that small-town feel from the city with its historic buildings and waterfront. I walked around Charlottetown at varying lengths on each day of my stay. I had rain on the first two days of my stay while I had clear weather on the remaining days. Anyways, here are my pics from my time in Charlottetown in Prince Edward Island.

P.E.I.'s Local Roadside Car Museum

On my last day in Prince Edward Island, I was supposed to check out Fort Amherst, but before heading over there, I found out that the attraction was not open. I needed to find an alternative attraction in the south side of the island to kill some time before my flight back to Toronto later that evening. While feverishly looking through Google Maps, I found a car museum not too far from my location called the Car Life Museum, and it was on the way back to Charlottetown. It seemed interesting enough, and I like cars, so I thought I would check it out. The Car Life Museum is a family-owned museum featuring restored antique and classic cars by the family, as well as tractors and other farm equipment. The feature car is an old Cadillac DeVille once owned by Elvis Presley.
