Levis PQ

As I write these words, it's 9:30 pm, back on good ol' EDT. In the past 2 days, we have traversed 3 time zones, so the numbers do not mean the same thing to my body as they may to my head... lol!

We left our campsite in Sussex, New Brunswick, this morning with the goal of stopping in Edmundston, N.B. tonight. In the interest of having more "non-raining" time in Quebec City, we decided to carry on to Levis, Que. rather than stopping. 

The result was a long day of driving, sigh.  Good and bad of course!  Karl and I alternate driving every 2 hours, "usually", so neither of us get too tired. Trick is that I am not good at backing up with the trailer, or getting out of tight spaces, so Karl often gets a bit more time behind the wheel. (but he does not do much of the kitchen thing so perhaps it works out 😀)

We actually got a chance to do some fishing today, or at least to dream a bit. Check out the picture for today's blog!  At a truck stop no less!!

Another day of quick stops and a picnic lunch in the back parking lot of a truck stop. We finally made it to the Levis KOA (just a few miles from Quebec City) by about 7 pm. And then realized we had nothing for supper!  It's always fun trying to look for a grocery store when none of the signs are in English. We persevered and found an IGA, with rotisserie chicken, cole slaw, and wedgie fries. Supper was at long last on the table for 9 pm. Sigh....  

But it will be worth it tomorrow because we'll have a chance to check out Old Quebec City. 

Karl just left to walk Max and it's raining again - it has rained, just a bit off and on all day. 
Here's hoping that Murphy (Murphy's Law) will give us a break tomorrow!
