I wish I could get to PEI this summer. The last time we were there was an. Acadian anniversary and it was fabulous. There were people in period costumes and I met someone pretending to by my own ancestor. She was at a museum of my ancestors home.

This year is the 150th anniversary of confederation and it is a 70 day party down there.

This link isn't cute, funny, or musical. But if anyone wants to learn a little bit about your northern neighbours, this looks a decent place to start. :)

I was in Charlottetown last week -- learned a lot about the confederation conference. They were gearing up for today's festivities. 150th anniversary of the conference but only 147 for the country.
