The bus left at 6am this morning, and everyone was aboard! With more hot weather predicted and tonight's destination being the big city, we set off at oh-six-hundred sharp. We jammed along the bluff overlooking the river on route 132, doing a quick driver swap and not really stopping until mile 48 at the fromagerie for an early lunch. Road was flat, great surface and low traffic and we were often moving along at 17-20+ mph. For real. Paula back on the bike too! Went over the scary bridge (last one on the river) before noon, and after a quick beer along the river, cruised along the last 5 miles into Quebec. This is really a magical city. Great food, history, architecture, shopping and vistas. And tourists. We all split up to explore. Stayed at nice hotel in the old city. 70 miles, and halfway from Kingston to gaspe.
