Day 10

Well,well. As Pangloss said, "this is the best of all possible worlds". A melted water-lock forced us to make some adjustments in our plans. It has also forced us to revisit our French lessons.
Due to the lack of safe propulsion we headed to Montreal. Fate has provided duck confit, rare Polish foods, museums and gorgeous parks. Scott and Cinda have provided excellent company.
Plans for today include Apple University, pastries and strong coffee, smoked meat at Schwartz,s and perhaps a taste of Chateau Lafite Rothchild. Oh yes, also a  visit to Notre Dame for the lumiere.
The bus ride back to St Paul Sur Richelou will take about 45 minutes. The same trip by boat on Saturday will take 2 days.

  1. Duck confit is one of your favorite meals, you must be in heaven dad! Were you able to get the water-lock fixed? I had TWO bats in the house last night and one a few days ago, sure would be nice if you were here to take care of them for me ha! Be safe and soak up your time with the Bradshaw's. Wish I was with you. xo
