Why I like the River Road or the old highway

I am sure that each Tad family has their special route to get to Tadoussac and it usually involves getting from A to B as quickly as possible! For me I always take the old highway along the river.  It is 20 minutes longer and no more – for all those who think it is too long!!

For me every mile I travel on that road calms me down and reminds me of how beautiful this place is. I was home to visit my Mom in Peterborough this past week and on my way home I took pictures of all of my favourite spots. The Fall colours are stunning right now so that was the extra bonus.

  1. Benny and I just came back from Tadoussac. We brought my cousin and her husband for a special visit. Although it was a short stay packed with activities, it was well worth it. The weather was spectacular and the colours were fantastic! Also love those bright red berries of the mountain ash tree. Am enjoying your blog.

  2. Hi,
    It’s excellent following you on your adventures.
    Now that’s quite the trip you took to see your mom along the north shore
    Hey Lady! Peterborough c’est pas a la porte..
    I never made it to Tadoussac however I did travel to St Simeon one summer and took the ferry to Riviere du Loup…just for the heck of it and to vary the route to my mom’s cottage in Bouctouche NB.
    Bless you two and greetings to Alan,
    Lucille <3
