Hello all,
After Ottawa we headed into French Canada which is very French! Far more so than we had expected. Most signs are just in French and everyone seems to speak French as their first language and though they all seem to speak English too I (Debbie) have been trying to brush up on my too long neglected language skills! But the cities also have a much more European feel and lots of lovely historic buildings that have reminded us of home.
The local delicacies such as `Poutine` - chips covered in gravy and mozzarella, and `Maple Taffy` - maple syrup poured onto snow to make it toffee like ice lollies have been a pleasure to try out! We have also enjoyed several art galleries, musees de la civilisation, local history etc, and most importantly just wandering around and soaking it all up!
We drive over the boarder back into the US tomorrow and make our way down the Eastern Coast... stopping off in Portsmouth. London etc along the way!!
More soon... and photos...
Lots of love,
Debbie and Alex xxx
