• Quebec City

    September 25, 2017 in Canada ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    We started out early from Ottawa with a full tank of gas and I removed all avoidances from the GPS. We had not traveled more than 30 miles and I noticed the road ahead on the GPS screen was passing over water in a strange arc. As we passed through the opening in the trees lining the road, we could see we were about to travel on a ferry. It was a pleasant surprise. About 200 miles into our drive, a young lady in a very sleek and new crossover came up alongside us and then fell back. She came up again with the passenger side window down and took a picture of us. She then slowly pulled ahead of us and was about 8 car lengths ahead of us when I noticed she was drifting towards the shoulder and guardrail on the left. A pickup was beside us following her when she hit the guardrail, threw a shower of gravel and then swerved back on to the lane partly sideways. I saw it coming and was on the brakes waiting to see which way I would need to go if she did not pull out of the swerve. She got it under control before we reached her. I would like to ask her if she got a good picture.
    The colors are starting to show as we approached Quebec City. We arrived at our hotel at about 3:00. We will check what there is to do and report....
    Well we walked to Old Quebec and looked around. Took some photos and ate supper at a sidewalk resturant. We recommend the salmon.
