I’ve just come back from a Sunday drive through gorgeous little hamlets just outside of Quebec @ La Cote-de- Beaupre. I had got a bit tired in the old city milling with all the tourists, fresh air was what I needed. There were plenty of cute little houses to photo and some trees changing colour. Pumpkins are everywhere.

 

 

On the way back, Montmorency Falls were lovely to explore, not as wide as Niagara but apparently a few feet higher. The cable cars take you to the top for a small fee. There is a bridge suspended directly above the falls for a view of it looking down! You can walk down to the bottom of the falls and/or return by cable car.

Lastly a stop off at Picardie deli to get Brie with truffle and rosemary/pistachio biscuits ….then a drive through expensive Sillery and more beautiful houses close to the St Lawrence River.

Now sitting back with biscuits and cheese and a red wine and plotting my drive through New Hampshire tomorrow. I’ve been checking yankeefoliage website each day and so far the trees are just ‘turning’, not full colour, I think I’m too early….dang it!! Anyway, it’ll be a scenic drive.
