Thanks for sharing it with us!
Wowza, Trish! What a great summer, jam-packed with fun!! Next summer, I am coming up for a visit!
Your family is beautiful and the surrounding country looks gorgeous! I am a bit fascinated with the royals and specifically, Princess Kate. Doesn't she just seem like someone you'd want to be friends with? So cool your friend got to meet them.
Your trip is so close!!!
Great images of your summer, Trish. I love living vicariously through other people's pictures and imaging what their day was like when they took the picture and I can just picture you and your family at PEI.
And yes....I think you've just added another destination to my bucket list. I've been across to Quebec City, Montreal and Toronto in that side of the world. I've been wanted to go back to Quebec....now I'll just have to add Nova Scotia and PEI to that trip. Someday.
Sounds like you are already well-versed though, especially for someone from Australia!
I'm totally envious of your fabulous summer!!!

What a GREAT summer you had! I am
Your summer sounds absolutely fabulous and you have certainly rekindled my desire to visit Nova Scotia and PEI. Honestly, I always thought PEI seemed too far to drive, but perhaps its doable.
I will be back later to see all your pictures. I can only see the ones of Will and Kate and they are lovely, although Kate is much too skinny IMHO.
Can't wait to see the rest!
Hi Trish,
I guess you must wonder what happened to me...well I am here just very, very far behind. The last installment I read was somewhere in the middle of your DestinationD conference. So I have sat here this morning and read and read and now I am finally all caught up! Whew! You have been a busy lady.
Your summer looks wonderful...I would love to visit PEI one of these days...it looks so beautiful and I am assuming much cooler than here. It has been a super hot and humid summer here in GA. I am thankful that we have had some cooler days lately. Your pictures of your family and the scenery are fantastic - thanks so much for sharing with us.
I won't/can't comment on it all but I have to comment of two things...First of all the GF. I agree that while it would not be my "resort of choice"; I would love to stay there for a few days and enjoy the grounds and atmosphere. It is certainly grand and beautiful and has so much to offer.
Second...you are so hard on yourself. However, I totally understand because I do the same thing...in my mind I am planning on doing a million things: exercise, clean this and that, plan this and that, cook this and that, ect... But then the day starts and what do I do sit here and read the DIS.I know that basically I need to worry about taking care of myself more and less about the other stuff... Your family is so blessed to have such a sweet and beautiful wife and mother.
I will try and stay current...
Have a great day!

Really looking forward to creating some special memories with them next week at Disney...those moments are always the highlight of every year for me.
What else can I say besides THANK YOU!!! Although we were born down east we were only there until I was 2 and my sis was 3! I think it's the most beautiful part of Canada...the east coast is always in our hearts! What a great summer you had....thanks again for sharing it with us
What a fantastic summer! Everytime you post pictures from 'home' it makes me want to visit Canada - such a beautiful place, someday we'll get up your way
Wow, your summer was very full indeed! Thanks for sharing your photos and uodate; yours are my favourite TRs to read and I am eager to hear how your family enjoys a fall trip. I am coming up on trip #8 in just a few weeks, but my very first trip ever with a child ~ our soon-to-be 6 year old niece, accompanied by her mom and dad and two grandmothers, who are all first-time visitors. Seven nights at WL from Nov 27th to Dec 4th, then 2 extra nights at the Yacht Club for just hubby and I (to help us unwind once our family departs). I can't wait to see the parks and hotels decked out in full for the holidays.
Meanwhile, have a wonderful trip with your family and friends and know that all your updates are much appreciated.
P.S. I also went to see The Lion King went it opened Friday night. I went solo to the late show and was pleasantly surprised at how full the theatre was, and with such an enthusiastic crowd...who also applauded at the end. It gave me "Disney chills" and made me that much more excited to get back to the world, where people like us belong
How funny you went to see the Lion King the same nite I went with the kids. I bet if you had attended the 7pm show you would have seen us! 
What a small world!!! I bet you'll love touring WDW for the 1st time with your niece. That said, I'll bet you will also have a newfound appreciation for the one-on-one adult time with just your DH after everyone else leaves. Sounds like the perfect trip - the best of both worlds! What an amazing summer you have had!!
. Have fun!! PS - My vote is for the ghost costumes 
I have to remember to stay in the moment and appreciate the time we have with them now...before they get a bit older and start ditching us to hang out with their friends.
and I am so looking forward to a first-hand account of any 40th anniv activities!
