Parc National du Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, Canada-Day3

<Japanese version is after English>日本語は英語の後にあります。

The final day in the Parc National du Mont-Tremblant. 

We woke up at 6-6:30 a.m. and had a campfire. Over the fire we cooked sausages. Original plan was to cook over fire at the first night and the second night, but the first evening was raining, so sausages were still remained. We brought all the way, so why not cooking for breakfast? Sausages were delicious! 

After breakfast, it started drizzling. We were debating if we should go short hiking or kayaking. It is not very fun doing activities under rain. 

First we decided to drive around the park. The park is actually really big. Shortly after, rain stopped. So we decided to kayak on the Lac Escalier. It is another lake in the park. 

Probably because Memorial Day in the U.S. is not holiday in Canada,  there is not a single human in the area, except for park rangers. It was very quite in the entire park. That was really nice.

Lac Escalier

The amazing thing about kayaking on this lake was being so secluded. The big whole lake was entirely ours. Not a single kayak was there for the whole time we were kayaking. This lake doesn't have much buildings around: except for (probably) one hut. Water was calm, so it was easy to paddle. It was nice to paddle on a peaceful lake.

During this trip in the vast Quebec nature, I really enjoyed the real wilderness. 

After kayaking, we headed back for the U.S.  Again we stopped at Montreal. This time we got smoked meat sandwich and poutine. According to Google, smoked meat is Montreal thing. The smoked meat was really tasty! I ate sooooo much meat. Poutine is french fries with gravy. I am not particularly a fan of poutine, but it was experience. 

For the border control, we accidentally went to the lane of NEXUS, which is probably pre-registration is required. Nicely nobody was in the lane, the officer let us pass the NEXUS lane. Then we came back to Boston around 9 p.m. 

Now I explored Eastern Canada twice: it is nice to go back again.

カナダ、ケベック州、モントランブラン国立公園キャンプの旅最終日の3日目。

6時半頃起きて朝のキャンプファイアー。火でソーセージを焼いた。本当は1日目と2日目の夜に焚き火で夜ご飯を作る予定だったが、1日目の夜は雨だったので3日目の朝にソーセージをバーベキューすることにしたのだ。

読者は朝からソーセージ!?と思うかもしれないが。。。美味しかった!

そしてエスカリアー湖でカヤック。カナダではメモリアルデーは休日ではない模様で人っ子ひとりいない。パークレンジャーしか見なかった。ものすごい大きなエスカリアー湖で我々だけがカヤックしている。ものすごく静か。うわー。最高の贅沢。こんな綺麗な湖を静かに独り占め。

モントランブラン国立公園では広大な自然を満喫することができて満足。

そして帰りに再びモントリオールに寄り、モントリオール名物(グーグルに夜と)らしいスモークミートのサンドイッチをゲット。これ、美味しい。そしてスモークミートが5センチくらいパンに挟まっている!

そして東部カナダ名物のプーティンも食べた。プーティンはフライドポテトにグレービーがかかっているもの。まあ、2度目はない味。

モントランブラン国立公園、綺麗でとても良いところ。また行って違う湖でもカヤックしてみたい。
