Greg & Camille Go Bike

We coasted along the coast today, about 55 miles to St. Zotique. We were certainly sad to be leaving Montreal but glad to have another night in Quebec. La Route Verte took took us most of the way there through small downtown areas and many parks. For lunch, we enjoyed a focaccia sandwich and some fruit bars while looking out towards the St. Lawrence River.

The chilly air and our hardworking legs competed to keep us cool and warm, resulting in us shedding, reapplying, and reshedding layers throughout the day. We eventually ran into some other tourists who were sporting a folding bike and warmer gear. They came from Ottawa and were biking to Quebec City. 

We had a whole 16-mile trail to ourselves approaching our destination for the night, Camping Te-Pee. The owner was very friendly and expressed her enthusiasm for our travels. As we were the only tent campers in the RV park, we had a huge campsite to ourselves. We settled down quickly, gearing up for a chilly night after dinner (couscous, lentils, and tuna wraps).
