Cavendish and PEI Butterfly House

 
Jon is back in Bangladesh now and I am preparing to join him in a few days.  The end of a visit always sneaks up on me. 
 
During Jon's time in PEI we visited Cavendish with most of the Barrett clan and spent some hours riding the waterslides at Shining Waters family Fun Park.

Jon and I made a quick visit to the beach before heading home.  Here are a couple quotes in honour of my love for the ocean and the One who created it.
 
“Look at that sea, girls--all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds.” 
 L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“In still moments by the sea life seems large-drawn and simple. It is there we can see into ourselves.”  
  Rolf Edberg

I also visited the Butterfly House finally with some friends. I recommend it (wear bright colors apparently)!
