Every day we slow down just a little bit more...... our. campsite in Sunset View campsite was. so pretty, we slept longer.
The owners had made an English garden very close to our site, about the size of a large back yard, fenced with gorgeous flowers (perennials) everywhere, wrought iron seats and small statues! Karl had to convince me to leave, sigh!
We made our trek to Quebec in about 8 hours, slower going with the trailer and the never ending hills.
We checked on the internet and apparently Fredericton is 8 ft above sea level...... no wonder todays journey had more ups than downs!
Quebec actually feels like another country. Of course "no English" on signs contributes to that. But even the rest stops on the road are different than I've seen elsewhere in Canada - very pretty and well cared for instead of just picnic tables with (hopefully) an outhouse the way they are in Ontario.
We are staying at Camping Juneau for 2 nights since we are now road weary, need a break and would love to see something of Quebec City. Only a few working at the park speak English, but everyone seems at least patient and most are pleasant.
We are running low on groceries and had to scrape a few cans together for supper. Tomorrow Karl can practice his French and brave the local epicerie (grocery store???) for something a bit more appetizing!
Well, it's cooling off, thank God! Somehow I think the heat from Ontario has found us.
Karl has started a campfire so I'd better go get abit closer...... for warmth.
Ciao ...... (how's my French?)
