We found and did short rounds of the trails they had at Prince Edward County.
These were not your usual trails, though. What they had were fun Art Trails,
Taste Trails, and my favourite, Wine Trails!
Going around Picton, Bloomfield and Wellington, we checked
out stores, places to eat and drink!

We had a lot of fun walking around in Bloomfield. We looked
at antiques at Dead People’s Stuff—not creepy at all!

There were many quaint stores to explore! The girls had such
a great time playing I Spy with Tammy at Hand Works that they didn’t want to leave!
They wanted to find all 30 items in the store filled with eclectic items! They
have original art, pottery, antiques, and many more.

Of course, after all that walking, we had to get some ice
cream! We all enjoyed our flavour picks: Toffee Coffee, Campfire and Key Lime!
Deliciously creamy and apparently hand-made in small batches daily! Yum!

Now, I couldn’t go home without doing a bit of the Wine
Trail. We went to Sandbanks Estate Winery where the service was just awesome. They
had some nice Canada 150 souvenir bottles and I totally loved their dessert
wines. I did a white flight in the tasting room and I enjoyed the Love Cassis
Aperitivo mixed with a bit of Sauvignon Blanc. Needless to say, I had to bring
home a couple of bottles!
We also went to Norman Hardie as we had wanted to try some
of the wood-fired pizza (with wine, of course). But the place was packed and we
didn’t want to wait about an hour so I just got a bottle to bring home.

So many more places to explore! We will definitely be back
to discover more of these trails.
