Oct 10 - Tadoussac





 I woke up early to frost!!!  I stayed in the tent until it had warmed up a bit…then quickly packed and cycled to Trois Rivières to pick up the rental car for a drive today. I took the front wheel off the bike and put it in a safe place while I loaded up the car….and forgot to put the wheel in and drove off.  Thankfully I was only about 30 min away when I realized, so back I went to pick it up!

So many beautiful views getting to Lac St Jean which is about 350km north west of Trois Rivières.  The lake is large and beautiful, and I was following Rivière St Maurice for the first half of the trip, so a nice twisty road that I will have to come back to do on the motorcycle 😀.  Unfortunately when driving I can’t just stop where I like to take a photo….so unfortunately I don’t have many photos again today.  

I drove part way around the lake, as the full circuit would have been 250 km all the way around, and I still wanted to get a bit closer to Tadoussac which is the end of the Fjord.  Unfortunately it got dark as I was passing by, so no views….but apparently I have to get off the road for the views, so I will return tomorrow before heading south.
