clean rooms, and on Day 5, it’s the 120year-old Hôtel de la Gare and a “dégustation de bières” (a sampling of delicious flavoured beers) on the shady deck. While savouring the tint of strawberry pink in one small glass of beer and the aroma of maple syrup in yet another, David and I sum up the adventure we will soon complete and give it an 11 out of 10. There’s no faulting anything. While enjoying six days of bug-free sunshine, beautiful scenery, a plethora of lakes, and bountiful fresh raspberries along the path, we’ve treated ourselves to lots of exercise and fresh air. While sampling local foods and beers, we’ve met kindred souls and made new friends. While learning more about the area’s history, flora and fauna, we’ve also had an opportunity to dust off our high school French and try it out. And while enjoying an independent tour at our own pace, we’ve been able to travel stress-free and leave the planning to the experts. Wow! Merci, Québec. Our last night at Saint-Adèle is spent in the company of three other couples from Ontario also staying at Hotel de la Gare. They have been on the four-day tour, the Classical itinerary. We enjoy dinner together, swapping tales and experiences of the journey, and David and I are surprised to learn that these lively young-looking couples are all in their 50s. Perhaps “Jackrabbit” and his colleague from Labelle Station were on to something: keeping active may be the best thing we’ve got to the SL fountain of youth.
