La Malbaie

We started the day by going to the Charlevoix Museum. It was a nice museum and had three sections. The first was the history of the area. What was most interesting is that this area was formed by an asteroid that hit this area millions of years ago. When we are driving it is noticeably lower here than it was in Quebec. Also, found out that La Malbaie means "the bad bay". At low tide the bay actually dries up. We saw it a few times at low tide but never made it to it high tide.
The second area was an art gallery that is currently featuring five artists from Quebec who paint Quebec's scenery. Rather than having the paintings sorted by artists, the paintings were categorized by the different areas in Quebec. It was interesting to see and compare all the different interpretations.
The third part was on the second floor in a circular room overlooking the bay. The curator was just setting up a temporary display featuring local artisans. It was cool to see the displays up against the windows. There's a video of that.
A couple of days earlier we were looking for St Hubert's for supper. (It's a chicken and rib place that I like.) Google sent us there, I am sure, in the best way possible but turns out it was located inside the casino. The casino was fancy and it looked like the hotel associated with it was pretty fancy too. We were not dressed to be around there. All this to say that were some pretty fancy Halloween decorations outside the casino.
There is also a second footprint for today.もっと詳しく
