Historic Charlottetown Waterfront

When I visited Charlottetown, it wasn't anything what I expected. PEI was so much more beautiful than I could have imagined it would be and Charlottetown was no exception. Seen in this photo is a floating dock hub of places to eat. Depending on the tide determines where you are either at street level, or well below. I ate at The Chip Shack but unfortunately was a bit of a disappointment.

There was lot's to see in downtown Charlottetown. In August when I was there you could find music in the park nightly, shopping at lot's of little vendors, and a beautiful park to bike, run, and or relax. Cow's Ice Cream is really big here so if you can handle the line ups it's worth it.
