Day 13-En Fin

  • by

Saturday, June 16. The last day of the trip. I woke cool and comfortable in the room Bruce had provided the day before. I would have liked to have slept longer, but the sun was bright (Why wouldn’t it be? It came up at 4:30 a.m.!), and I heard voices below. Even though it was only 6:30 a.m., I feared I was the last one up.Read More »Day 13-En Fin

We awoke on June 15 at Les Acres Tranquilles near Port Daniel to the breakfast portion of our bed & breakfast. The most delicious pain du perdue (i.e. French toast) I’ve ever had. Also orange juice, small cinnamon rolls and tartlettes, fresh yogurt. Délicieux!

But we are now in Gaspé!!Read More »Day 7 & 8-Ending Early and a Shortcut

Day 5-Hallelujah a Tailwind

The view from a windy and cold water break.

We “lost” 10 miles yesterday and stopped early at Gîte du Domaine-Joseph Ross. We decided to try to recoup those miles today, for a total of 57 miles. Our longest day if we don’t have to make up any miles, and my longest mileage in a day to date. (57 miles!)Read More »Day 5-Hallelujah a Tailwind
