Difficulty - easy
Distance - less than a football field

Where can you have your picture taken by a fiberglass pototo that's
14 feet high? Why the Prince Edward Island Potato Museum, of course.

The musem was fun and informative, and we learned a lot about this
important PEI industry. It also helped us appreciate the MANY potato
fields we saw on our PEI vacation. They have a good website at
peipotatomuseum.com. Check here for hours and dates of operation.
After you enjoy the museum (or if by some fluke of nature don't want
to know more about the potato), you can find our box outside.

Pull all the way into the parking lot and park facing away from the
museum. There is a field with a pretty gazebo directly in front of
you. Go to the gazebo steps and take a left. At the corner turn
right. The prize for which you are searching is under the central
support on that side. Gloves may be helpful. We saw a spider. Have
a seat, stamp up and rehide well. Enjoy.

We are not local at all, so please help us keep this box updated and
dry. If we can help you in this or you'd like to email us, please
do. rtrw@attbi.com
