Well, we had a 4 hour thunder and lightning storm last night and woke up, of course, with wet tents. We can not believe this weather, although we have not had to cycle in it yet.
This area, including Becancour and Gentilly, is flat and mainly agricultural. I had my first poutine in St. Pierre-Le-Bequets. Despite the look of it with cheese curds and gravy on fries, it was quite tasty and enjoyable.
People in this area really take pride in their homes and gardens. The farms are prosperous looking and everything is freshly painted, it seems. In Lotbiniere we were shown an old meeting house by a local historian and he also told us about Lotbiniere being one of the belle villages in Quebec. It has many very old homes.
This campground, Belle Vue at Point Platon, is a very exciting spot for families to stay. They also had their Christmas in July event. We unfortunately are stuck up on the hill, in the wind, without running water or electricty! The gusts of wind are very scary.
