Charlottetown

The decor is corner store casual, the utensils decidedly plastic. But the steaming mound of fresh lobster overrunning your plate looks extremely promising. You scarf down the sweet, juicy morsels with a maniacal fervour. You'd have licked every inch of your plate too, if it weren't made of paper. The best part: it only set you back $12.

Satiated, you join a walking tour along the quiet tree lined avenues, your guides dressed in period costumes harkening back to a time when this was the setting for the establishment of a nation.

You'll find more than a few pleasant surprises in the cozy island capital of Charlottetown. Bring your appetite for adventure and discover how sweet the simple life can be.
