After a quick tour arond Quebec we leave this
beautiful city and are heading for Ottawa, the capital city of
Canada. Today we have lunch at a sugar factory and maple syrup
factory called 'Sucrerie
de la Montagne'. It's situated in the woods, surrounded by maple
trees. Here we get a demonstration and explanation of how maple
syrup is made. In the sucrerie it's made in the old-fashioned way.
We have a nice lunch with the whole group, while being entertained
with live music. Of course there are pancakes for desert with maple
syrup filling.
After lunch we have some time to walk around in the woods. After
that we leave for Ottawa. It's a nice route to Ottawa,
as you see on one of the photos.
In Ottawa we do a city tour by bus, where the main sights are
shown to us. Tomorrow we have the whole day in Ottawa, so now we
already know where to find everything. |
