Donna and I are sitting at our cottage in Shediac NB, along with our daughter, her husband and 2 kids, who's pop up is sitting unused in the back yard. It was their intention to leave Wednesday, spend a few days in northern NB and then go onto the Gaspe part of Quebec. Unfortunately the weather has changed, and it has been wet and cool, not great beach weather for 2 or 4 year olds. All that to say, if you're looking for a beach vacation, I wouldn't recommend PEI, and most activities on PEI are really centered around the beach. NB and NS on the other hand have a lot of other things to offer. However, before offering suggestions, are you looking for kids activities, historical places, museums, coastline, ??? Throw out a few questions, and I & other locals, along with many forum members will offer suggestions.
