Gone with the Family

The Ultimate Guide to Prince Edward Island for Fans of Anne of Green Gables

I first read Lucy Maud Montgomery's novel Anne of Green Gables when I was 11 or 12 years old and dreamed of someday visiting the land where Anne's adventures took place. That dream finally came true about 20 years later on our first family trip to Prince Edward Island and I felt as if I had stepped into the pages of the book and the fictional world of Avonlea. In the years since, we have visited the island a total of 8 times and my daughters have grown up as fans of Anne of Green Gables. As a result, we have visited nearly all of the "Anne of Green Gables" locations on the island that have a connection to either L.M. Montgomery herself or her most famous fictional character.

Visiting San Diego During the Holiday Season

Travel over the Christmas holidays has been a tradition for our family since my husband and I first decided many years ago that giving an experience gift such as Christmas travel was far better than buying excessive stuff for each other. One of our favourite holiday trips was to San Diego, California, an action-packed, family-friendly destination that is fun any time of the year but particularly so during the Christmas holiday season. Whether you are visiting during the pre-Christmas period between U.S. Thanksgiving and Christmas or between Christmas and New Year's, your family is sure to enjoy all of the festive events and activities taking place in San Diego.

One of the best day trips from Munich, Germany is to the spectacular Neuschwanstein Castle which is quite possibly the most beautiful castle in Europe. Seeing Neuschwanstein in person has been on my travel bucket list since the very first time that I saw a photo of the castle so when we decided to travel to Munich, Salzburg and Vienna for our spring break this year I immediately started research to figure out how to fit a visit to Neuschwanstein Castle from Munich into a tight itinerary.
