The first activity at the cabane a sucre was to learn more about the process of making maple syrup and to make our own maple butter. We started with a small container of maple syrup from the trees right outside the building we were in. We stirred the maple syrup vigorously for eight minutes and, finally, ended up with maple butter! If you are lucky, maybe you will get taste some soon…
They are keeping us a little busy today so the blogging is a little behind schedule! Our first stop of the day was at Cuivres D’Art: Albert Gilles. We learned about artist Albert Gilles and his work making beautiful works of art out of copper. His wife and children took over after he passed away and are still creating and leading tours. We learned how to make our own copper art and might have done a little shopping...
Afternoon activities - more Old City map, Cami’s Justin Trudeau socks, Musee de la Civilisation - Observer exhibit.
Our final breakfast in Quebec in preparation for our last fun-packed day! Everyone is well rested and ready to go!
Dinner at the Mansion at Montmorency Falls. Your kids sure clean up nice. 🙂
After the wagon ride we sat down for a traditional Québécois dinner from the 1600’s and a little dancing.
After we made maple butter we took a quick wagon ride. Camille ran along the side!!
From the first time we met Camille, on Thursday morning she greeted our group with a robust “‘Allo, ‘allo, ‘allo!!!” We were bleary eyed from spending 14 hours in a bus but her greeting rallied us and let us know that we had a lot to look forward to! Don’t be surprised if you hear “ ‘allo, ‘allo, ‘allo!!” around your house in the near future. FYI when one is greeted in this way, the appropriate response is... well, you’ll see.
