Mont-Tremblant, QC to Maskinonge, QC


After updating our blog and a great breakfast, we left our campground and headed towards St-Sauveur, another ski resort in the Laurentians. The highways in Quebec can be pretty rough and in some places the potholes are deep enough that Pepsi could comfortably hide in them. We gave up on the scenic route and instead opted for Autoroute 15 which was much better.

Our first and only stop today was St-Sauveur. During the time that Martin lived in Montreal, he can remember going to a small bakery in St-Sauveur with his parents to buy freshly baked buns. The bakery is still there, but now has other shops in the area where the wood fired ovens used to be.

Right next door to the bakery is the Cotard chocolate shop, the winner of the best Canadian chocolate award in 2015. Here we were greeted by a chocolate wolf and bear. Scarily delicious!

Lunch was at a fabulous Greek restaurant called Souvlaki 7 where we had souvlaki in a pita.

Our home for the night is a rest area, especially for big trucks. We made it just in time before a severe thunderstorm with torrential rain hit. We battened down the hatches watched some Netflix until the rain and thunderstorm got too loud. After the storm passed, we finished the episode.
