The Birthplace of New Scotland

After we hopped on the ferry to leave the beautiful shores of PEI, we landed in Pictou, Nova Scotia, a place where many Scottish immigrants also landed by boat in 1773.  Pictou is now known as the “Birthplace of New Scotland.”

Charlottetown Dining

We certainly made our way around rural PEI, and I honestly think it might be some of my favourite countryside in all of Canada.  The rust-coloured ground makes the grass look a richer shade of emerald green, and the colours contrast the bright blue sky perfectly.  With the dirt of the countryside still on our boots and car, we arrived in Charlottetown, and were pleasantly surprised with what this small, vibrant city had to offer.
