It's now Tuesday morning. The sun rose before 5:00 AM and there will be almost 17 hours of sunlight today (I'm getting pretty far north). Some other tidbits from the last few days:
Sunday, the bike passed the 10,000 mile mark in St Isadore, about 25 miles south of Quebec City (see silly photo from yesterday)
We saw a small pod of Beluga whales while taking the free ferry across the Saguenay River. Froom the signs, it would appear that whale watching is an important industry in that region, especially this time of year, when many whales come to the St. Lawrence estuary to mate.
Virtually the entire route yesterday was posted with moose warnings - As I got tired late yesterday on the flat, straight forested part of the road, I found myself yearning for a nice big 18 wheeler to tuck in behind so I didn't have to be quite so vigilant to these massive creatures.
Here are some more photos from yesterday, included a self portrait taken while waiting for the Saguenay ferry
Natashquan is within reach, only another 260 miles.
