Yes we did it, needless to say against the wind. On our way we stopped at a little cafe (Le Nid in Vercheres) for a coffee. The owner was just empting his garbage bins and told us, that this place would not open until 1th of November. But, he added he would make us a good coffee. So we were their first guests! He and his wife Mailhiot are artists and a bit tired of making art. So they took all their money to open this cafe and bakeryshop. When we asked, who makes the pasteries, they said that they will make most themselves, something they have never done it before on a professional basis! We were very impresed and we are sure, they were so friendly, they will be successful. Also the Cappuchino was great.
Montreal greeted us with castlelike villas along the river shore, loud highways and badly marked bikepaths. No wonder we ended twice on the highway (forbidden) and once we had to carry our bikes over a bridge. Finally and a bit exhausted we arrived at Micheline and Denis house, we had met them the day before in the B&B. After a warm greeting we were invited to the jacussi and later to a more than delicious dinner with Wine, cheese and more!
What can we say, except that Canada and its people are incredible and we hope to take that spirit home with us! Cheers to Canada!
