Home to a third of Prince Edward Island's residents, Charlottetown is a small but lively and historic city. It is also the home of the infamous Lucy Maud Montgomery, world renowned author of Anne of Green Gables. Throughout the many miles of driving, Kath and I listened to the audio book version of Anne of Green Gables and were keenly aware of the story and the attributes of it's author. Upon our arrival we found that 2008 is the 100Th anniversary of the book, so they were in the midst of celebrating. The tour of the house that was the center of the story was just as the story depicts. We both enjoyed the home, the gardens and the infamous walk through the haunted forest.
