Chateau Frontenac 

Cycled short circle route over big, old, steel, narrow bridge crossing the very muddy St. Lawrence into Old Quebec City. We briefly explored the quaint waterside narrow streets of shops in old town when it started to rain. Got soaked and ducked into a Naval canteen for some warm soup and coffee. Took 10 min ferry across channel and headed back to camp as more dark clouds were fast approaching. Dried out and decided to drive into city and be walking tourists for the night but that too was also cut short by a severe thunderstorm and torrential rains…thank god we were not on our bikes or we would have been swept away down the instant river paths of rain water. C’est la vie!

  1. Better get out there and enjoy the "sun" cuz the forecast is for more rain... Il pleut beaucoup de jeudi a lundi. Nice pics though. Oh it's just going to be another shitty weekend of sun and warm temps on Paradise Island - it's a bitch but some of us just have to endure the torture... :-)
    Happy surfing/scuba diving/paddling/and cycling???
