Arrrived in Gaspé

Hello all! Yesterday we left Rimouski and traveled about 4 hours to Madeleine, a very small village on the North coast. The drive was very pretty and hilly with views of the water around each bend. Our motel was right next to the church, so we were able to walk to the concert. The motel didn't have working lights, shower, or internet, and there was no phone in the room, but there was a tv and it was such a treat to flip it on and hear English. We spent our free time playing rummy outside at a picnic table overlooking the water. We'll be in Gaspé for the next three nights. We're staying in a college dorm and the town looks very pretty with lots of little shops and flowers everywhere. My cell phone works! There is also a computer in the common room that I can use, so consider me a happy camper.
