Mitali of Green Gables
As an oft-displaced child, I borrowed roots from my favorite authors. L.M. Montgomery's novels made Prince Edward Island one of my many homes. Just got back from a recent sojourn to "Avonlea," Montgomery's pseudonym for her beloved Cavendish, and savored a few of her books all over again.

Thanks for sharing your journey with all of us! It was nice to see all your pictures in one place. I still love the rainbow one the best.
*gasp!*

Someday I'll go there. I will, I will, I will.
I've been wanting to since I was, oh, what? 8? Ridiculously young. Before I even fell in love with the books and only had the movies to love.
LOVELY!! Thanks so much for these!
Oh, I can't wait. Thanks Mitali for sharing!
We returned from PEI 2 wks ago. Most beautiful countryside. Some of your pics look just like ours. The 10- and 12-yr-olds loved dress-up at Avonlea.
Ditto to what Tanita said!
*swoon*
Tanita said it better than I could. I want to go there! How wonderful!
I really want to visit PEI. I loved those books (and the movies!) so much growing up.
Someday I need to do the Betsy-Tacy thing in Mankato as well, especially since I live so close.
oh, you are so inspiring! I am SOOO going to PEI now.
Glad you had such a good visit! Thanks for sharing the photos. I feel a tiny bit like I was there, too.
I adored the Anne books growing up (and still love them). One of my dreams is to go to PEI someday. Thanks for sharing your photos-now I know I really do have to go there!
Lovely! Thank you for the pics! You make a beautiful Anne, Mitali. xo
Hmmm... wondering how to convince the hubby to go to the Lake of Shining Waters... :)
So glad you guys enjoyed the photos! Shelf, mine golfed while I did the touristy Anne stuff solo (doesn't take more than a day), and then we biked around the island together.
Glad you enjoyed a visit to my home. I read your comment on Melissa's blog re an Island visit and popped over here. Hmmm I hope you had some good weather. July was not great this year but August was incredible - and Sept has been perfect. The water temperature is still warm and I was swimming yesterday.
I'm a retired teacher librarian and ordered your books for our library - I loved them. I also was deeply moved by your testimony that I read online.
Blessings!
