We traveled to the Falls by bus. continued bu foot closed to the bottom of the Falls and climbed bu lift and foot to the top pf the falls.It was marvelous view from the bottom and the top, also from the lift too.
After the Falls we continued to the Chocolatery de I'lle d'Orleance to drink hot cacao and buy fresh chocolate. The most interested stop on the way to Beaupre was the Copper Art Albert Gilles Boutique & Museum, where we saw so beautiful l exposition of hand made articles of copper art.Some of them are shown in this album.On the way we took photos of many picturest country houses, shown here too.
