Maritimes - Almost Dead Attractions of PEI

With the downturn in tourism, some fringe tourist attractions of PEI have shut down with a wimper. Some places, like the one above, I thought was closed but after coming back home discovered it just looked that way. Above is the Fan-Tas-Ma-Goric Museum.
I dimly remember this one, Jurassic Bart's, which is owned by the same fellow and for sale but also still open. It has a hodgepodge fossils, plaster like large dinosaurs, astromomy and a space shuttle. Yup, a space shuttle (see below).

Just goes to show that if coming here when it is not tourist season (July to August) its very empty of people but most things are closed. If you are interested in revitalizing these attractions you can see the fellow's website here. From the reviews I've read online, they are great for the kids but not for adults.
