Gaspesie National Park.....

Maple Forest


                                                    Rocher Perce
                              Fourillon National Park
                          Not something we see at home
We were lucky enough to be able to go to Gaspesie and Fourillon National Parks in the weekend! It involved a lot of driving and most of the national park ended up being closed but it was a great little trip anyway!! We managed to go on a couple of nice walks through the Maple forest... something we don't have at home! We were hoping to see a moose or even some carabou.... we were told we had as much chance seeing them on the road in the national park as anywhere..... but we came at the wrong time!! So it looks like we might be going back there to try our luck again....! We had a few little stops in some small towns on the way..... we also passed a massive wind turbine farm.... if you look really closely at the bottom you can see us standing there (maybe try clicking on the picture...?!!) The rock with the hole in it is one of the most famous land marks in Quebec!! I would like to put more pictures up but that might be getting a weee bit much (and they take a while to download)!!!Post more very soon!!!
