The lobster is an iconic element of the image of Prince Edward Island internationally. On my recent trip, I had many encounters with the species and its representation.
There was, for starters, my encounter with a prepared lobster at Fisherman's Wharf in North Rustico.

There was also my visit to Summerside, at the time in the middle of its lobster festival.


Bakin' Donuts had a nice lobster roll dinner.

The Anne of Green Gables Store in Charlottetown, meanwhile, featured a huge plush lobster perched menacingly above Anne Shirley and Diana Barry.

I'd also like to share again, from last year's trip, Sandy Carruthers's 2013 sketch Lobster! depicting a beach-going community under attack.
