The subtitle for this post is:"National muck spreading day". We saw, and smelled, so many farmers out working on their fields yesterday and it continued today. All of the south shore got "muck spread".

Luckily breakfast was in the village, not the countryside.
|
|
It was a bakery
|
|
and a restaurant.

We had the champigons et brie omelette with a croissant, which passed all my mothers criteria (pulls apart easily leaving a slight grease of butter and a few crumbs on the fingers, crispy outside, doughy and elastic inside). There was no need to, but we dipped it in the confiture provided.

We took the shoreline route for a while and stopped to take a picture of the same lighthouse as we did on the way. A much clearer day.

Still masses of Snow Geese around

their heads stained from foraging along the mucky shoreline.

It was rather a boring drive along the TransCanada south of Quebec City and Montreal and we were unused to the amount of traffic, especially trucks.

In Ontario you have to watch for deer and moose simultaneously, but only at night.

Glad to get to Pakenham, Mark and Emma's place, where we will get a days rest from driving. |
