We set off from Richmond Hill on Sunday and travelled to visit Dave's aunt Cathy in Burretts Rapids south of Ottawa. We got as far at Perth when the heavens opened up and got to test our rain gear. Dave's worked Bev got wet.
We had a nice visit with Cathy and her new, very excitable teen age dog Casey. The next day we continued north east on the 401 and route 40. We got as far as Trois Rivieres before the heavens opened yet again with perhaps the heaviest downpoor we have ever encountered. We had to fight with cars for a place to stop under a overpass, even the biking cops had pulled over on the other side and were waving at us.Dave finally got wet and Bev was really soaked, with her eye makeup on her cheeks.
Tuesday dawned bright and sunny and we went all the way to le Malbaie. We stopprd for lunch at Montmorency Falls just north of Quebec and took Route 362 from Baie Ste Paul to Malbaie. This road, inspite of the construction with sand, stones, and groves, offers spectacular views of the St Lawrence.
