This Sunday we had a fabulous day. Even though we were a bit tired from saturday’s extravaganza, we woke up fit as a fiddle. The weather was a bit chilly but that did not stop us. We took a crowded bus to a great big waterfall called “la chute Montmorency" where we were told by our teachers that the waterfall was even bigger than the famous Niagara Falls - it was in fact 80 meters. The view of the nature was simply a sight for sore eyes that were not quite used to the nature of Quebec yet. From a bridge above the waterfall, you could see the entire forest that surrounded us. And just as I thought Quebec could not be more beautiful, I turned around and drew a breath of fresh air, so my lunges cried with happiness. None of us could get enough of the view of the color of the trees. We all thought that the timing of our journey was stroke of luck since everything looked like a fairytale.

  Since the tour to the waterfall was the only thing on our program that day, we had the rest of the afternoon off. So of cause, as the girls that we are, we went to a huge mall where we spend the rest of the day and what little money we had left.
