Camping De la Demi-Lieue, is so great, and we only have a 2 hour drive left to get to Ile D'orleans, so we decided to hang out at the camp for the morning (checkout is not til 1pm). We did a load of laundry and generally lolly-gagged around for a few hours. we started our drive to Ile D'Orleans and arrived about 3pm and were given a lovely site at the edge of the campground overlooking fields. We set up and walked around to see the site we will move to tomorrow.. looks wonderful - wooden deck, patio furniture and nice and wide, close to the river facing the south shore of the St Lawrence river. We cooked up a nice dinner with baked haddock, Quinoa and purple beans --- YUM!! We are so excited to be here at Ile D'Orleans.. we last camped here many years ago with our friends Derek and Lin from UK. This island is beautiful, and we can't wait to get to taste the cassis, the bread, wine, smoked fish and soak up the lovely landscape that make up this wonderful french rural Quebec island in the middle of the St Lawrence River.
