Delta Trois Rivieres Trois-Rivieres

... it throughout the chaos that is the Trans Canada Highway in the throes of being rebuilt (stimulus money, don’t you know) through Montreal, and out into the mind-numbing dreariness of the south shore of the St. Lawrence river and valley. Total monotony was avoided by way of two-way radios in each vehicle, through which we entertained each other with witty commentary on the passing scene, and alerts concerning unexpected road turns and constabulary ...

... suis allé quêter une chambre pas cher. Pas cher pour un 4 étoiles c'est 110$ mais je l'ai pris quand même! Rien de trop beau pour les cyclotouristes!
Disons que mon camping à 19$ ne me manque pas! haha!
J'ai profité de la piscine en masse, je me mets la tête dans l'air climatisé et je me fais masser le genou par la femme de chambre!

Poc poc mon poulet arrive!
Mmmmmm le poulet et la nuit seront bons!


PS: merci à tous pour vos commentaires!

... put the baby up a tree and told it to stay there while she went to have tea and it would not move - I wonder if I could try that one at home!

So after a very big day this was a great end to it. We have sorted a few options for tomorrow but the most likely to go canoeing on some of the lakes, now we have our fancy four wheel drive we can take a canoe on the roof if we need to (not quite sure how us two shorties would get it on the roof but we could always look helpless).

... of fun. And as for this weekend, I will be leaving good ol Trois-Riviéres on Saturday morning, getting back into Mtr for about noon. Then I'm staying in the same hostel as before for three nights, leaving for Edmonton bright and early on Tuesday morning. Now I just need to fill 3 days with activites in Montréal. I think I'll be getting a museum card and just hitting those up like mad. :)

Anyways, jusqu'a la prochaine!

Désolée mes amis et ma fam!

There was great confusion last weekend, and I didn't actually end up going to le Parc de la Mauricie. Which is a little sad but I think I will live.

Cette vendredi, me and my friend Candice are going to head to a sugar cabin. Apparently, this is where our maple syrup comes from. It should be interesting. Pictures WILL be posted. Unless its très ...

... walking tour but instead chose to just walk around. It was nice until it started to pour. You know, I never noticed how much it doesnt rain in Alberta until I came here and it doesn't Fing stop!! I've gotta get me some rain boots. We found a little book store that weighs the books, and they are a dollar a pound! It was awesome.... J'achete 5 livres pour enfants, en francais, pour $1 ...

... y a beaucoup de monde aujourd'hui au lagon où le soleil ruisselle sur les cocotiers. Y a les costauds qui pêchent la nacre, les grosses mamas aux paréos multicolores, les petites vahinés à la peau dorée. Et même les oiseaux sont silencieux. Les gros crabes de cocotiers, cachés sous les feuilles, ouvrent de grands yeux curieux. Même les enfants oublient de jouer.

... me dois dans l'obligation d'établir un prix de base pour la presentation des photos, ce prix de base sera fixé à 1 bière/heure/personne(à la veille du jour de l'an je vais surement presenter tous les photos tout dependant de l'auditoire et de mon état). Bon fini les plaisanteries merci tout le monde. Je vous laisse sur quelques photos de notre retour!

... crying out loud: I'm sure she can figure out how the washer and dryer work !!! So it is DEFINITELY time for me to leave ... staying here so comfortably is just not healthy for me. I might not be sure I'll be able to know what I'm looking for when I see it (namely because I'm still not sure what it is I'm looking for), but becoming an obsessive Martha Stewart-like person is NOT what I'm looking for ! Seeing as I've been saying good-bye for the past month, I've had many many ...

... out of Hong Kong on a standby pass was easy enough and I arrived in Vancouver 5 hours before I left (thanks to the international date line). Stayed with the Gilchrists overnight and went right back to the airport early the next morning, hoping to catch the first flight home - no doing. It was the end of eastern March break and the start of Western March break, so the airports were full of skibunnies with standby tickets loudly ...
