Touring Boston

 

 

 

 

Pictures taken in Boston.... Before we took a ferry to George's Island, we got the kids to play in the water fountain while we waited. They loved it! There were buttons you could push to start 5 different fountains. It was such a hot day, so it cooled them off nicely. Boston can be seen behind Meagan and Myself.

New York

 

 

 

 

These are a few pictures taken on the drive back from Boston, heading back into Canada. The plan was to make it to New York... and we made it there - the state. We drove through the tip of New York state. So we can say we were there, for about 15 minutes. The town we stopped at was very close to the border, and I thought it was pretty neat that they had both country's flags.

Thought I'd put on a few more pictures, as I really didn't put many on about our trip. We just had a garage sale this weekend, and it turned out good. Thanks Claudia for all the help!!! This is 2 years in a row, having a sale. There BETTER not have to be one next year...

Meagan starts preschool on the 15th already!!!! My baby's a big girl :( She started writing her name this week, after being shown once. She's really into making crafts (EVERY DAY!!), so I'm always looking for more ideas of what she can do. She will love school! Can't believe it's fall already!! We had such a great summer, but it went by too fast!

 

 

 

 

Rimouski Museum

 

 

 

 

This was a very interesting tour for us, as we leaned about the story of a huge ship (almost like the titanic) that sunk at 1 am near the shores of Rimouski, 2 years after the Titanic sunk. One of my Aunty's lives in Rimouski, and she brought us here. A very sad but interesting story. Another boat had hit it in very foggy conditions. Here are just a few photos we took.

Buildings we saw

 

 

 

 

The Chateau Frontenac was just gorgeous! We went inside for a bit. We took quite a few photos of some of the beautiful buildings and bridges we saw. The photo with the fountain was taken in a very small hamlet, before we got to the Canadian border crossing. There were many huge houses, and this was just one of them. I also had to take a photo of the two flags that were displayed on every lightpost on the main street. Thought that was pretty cool. More photos to come... (trying not to overload you! :)
