From one of the larger provinces of Canada, we move to the smallest one, Prince Edward Island. This is located off the coast of Nova Scotia and was always a separate British colony, due to its island reality. Prior to Canada being formed as a country, it was a series of British colonies that remained loyal to Great Britain during the turmoil that created the United States. For those Americans unaware of their nations history, there were actually 17 American colonies that participated in the famous Philadelphia Congress of 1775. Well, sorry, but Quebec was as much an American colony as Virginia, as was Nova Scotia, Acadia (New Brunswick), Newfoundland, and PEI. A century later, a pivotal conference held in Charlottown, PEI, paved the way for Canada becoming a self-governing country. PEI joined six years later. Now, PEI is joined to the mainland by Confederation Bridge, making it easy to visit. Our map is actually two maps of the Canada Map Office. Side 1 is of the island itself and Side 2 is of the central portion, including Charlottetown, the provincial capital, at a much more detailed scale. As this is a survey map, it is extremely accurate, with touristic attractions imposed over it, so it shows contour lines, all sorts of roads, small villages that one mises if one blinks while passing through, and all the many beaches and coves of the shoreline. The two main attractions on the island are Province House (currently under reconstruction) and the Anne of Green Gables farmstead. Although Anne was a fictional character, the author based her novel on Cavendish Farm and on her own life growing up. Novels of Anne's adventures are so popular that the government finally made the farm a National Historic Site, visited by hundreds of thousands of die-hard fans each and every year. This is another must see travel destination for everyone.
