Louise, Mary and I set out to leave the grand city of Québec
and return to the quiet highways travelling through small towns. To leave the
city we went onto a ferry to cross the river. There we met up with Mike, Dan
and Joyce who we cycled with for the remainder of the day.

The day was gorgeous. The sun shone warm and bright in the morning.
It did cloud over in the afternoon and became windier; however, the beauty of the route made up
for the overcast skies and the wind was in our backs for the most part. We followed Route 132 for the majority of the day. It took
us along the St. Lawrence River, which was getting bigger and bigger. The mouth
of the river is huge. I never realized how truly massive the St. Lawrence is. We also had a fantastic view of the mountains jutting out of the river.

We stopped at a nice restaurant and ordered pea soup which
is cultural food of Québec. Soon after we went onto a bicycle path to get to
camp. The bicycle path was lovely, with a great view. All in all the day was
enjoyable and it was fun to spend it with Mike, Louise, Mary, Dan and Joyce.
