Northeast Trip 2007 - Quebec |
|
|
|
Leaving Quebec City, we followed the St. Lawrence river. We stopped at Monmagny and took a small ferry to an island called "Ile aux Grues". Pierre & Michelle had recomended we check it out. It turned out our 29'10" motorhome was the largest vehicle they allowed on the ferry. |

This was the ferry making a run before we got on. |
|
Here we are crammed on the ferry. It was a hair raising experience getting on and off the ferry, as we had to drive on a side ramp, then jockey back and forth until we were lined up properly. The deck hands only spoke French so that was interesting. |

The road sides had lot's of wild flowers. The island has a number of dairy farms that have formed a cheese making cooperative. |
|
|
We camped in a small munincipal campground on a hill overlooking the church and cemetary. |

Hardly anyone on the island spoke English, but it was a beautiful island with a pretty little town, and we enjoyed riding our bikes around the island. |
|
|
|
The little campground we stayed in looked out towards the dairy farms that cover a good part of the island. |
