Lac Saint-Joseph - La plage

Hello,

No more problems today. The sun was shining brightly when we woke up this morning so we decided to make use of it and go to a lake. It was lovely and hot and the lake had a sandy beach which we sun-bathed and did beach activities. Euan started digging a hole and Dad couldn't help but get involved (maybe with a little persuading!) but instead we (Neve, Dad and Euan) made a castle. The castle had a moat, a drawbridge and a two tiered mound with a road and lots of castles on top. We were very happy with our creation and the moat even had water in it! Euan and I then went on a trampoline that was floating in the water. It was great fun and you were allowed to jump off it into the water so me and Euan bust some moves! Now we are just about to go and have a pizza in Stoneham after a lovely day. We didn't have our cameras today so here is a picture from the internet to give you an idea:

Thank you for the lovely comments

Traveling and the first couple of days in Quebec/Stoneham

Traveling 

We traveled to Philadelphia on Sunday and we had a good flight. We watched a few movies and even had two meals! We had a six hour wait at the airport and a thunderstorm began. It delayed our plane and then the power went down at the airport. We then didn't get on the plane for anther hour so were very late arriving into Quebec. We then arrived in Quebec, all very tired, to find that our luggage had not arrived and was still in Philadelphia! We filled out some forms and then traveled to the house we are staying in at 2am Canadian time (7am English time). We had no trouble falling asleep after a very eventful day!

Day 1

Still without luggage we had to put our clothes from the other day back on. We had a look around the amazing house we were staying in and thought about what to do. We realised we had insurance and could by some essentials with it. We went shopping and all got some clothing including some posh lingerie for the ladies! Our bags finally arrived at 8pm but when we opened them some of our clothes were wet and it seemed that our bags had been sat in a puddle!

Day 2 (today)

Today we decided to go and look at a national park that is quite near to where we are staying. We had a packed lunch inside and then talked to a man about what there is t do. He recommended a couple of walks and canoeing. We are still quite tired so we decided to do the shorter of the two walks. We ended up walking up one of the hills but we didn't mind because we saw some amazing views. It was quite tiring but now we are all fresh-faced. We took some lovely photos which are below.

Lots of love Neve x
