Side trips...to another island! While we were visiting friends in St-Emile, Quebec, we took the opportunity to drive to Ile d'Orleans...Marleyne's French ancestors are coming from this region from Quebec. It was a delghtful summer day by the time we crossed to the island! We had lunch on the bank of the St Lawrence River close to Ste Petronille...smoked salmon and port loin, baguette and rose. The good life, wherever we go, is becoming our motto now!

La belle ile d'Orleans..elle nous a charme! La terre de mes ancetres (Marleyne), malgre la venue du 21e siecle, nous replonge dans la vie d'antan. Cette petite rue de St-Jean reflete bien le charme de l'ile..presque un musee!
