Our friend Carolyn recommended we watch this movie Our friend Carolyn recommended we watch this movie, The Long, Long Trailer with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. It was made in 1953 but could have been made in 2021. Every single thing that happens in the film is relevant today. In this scene they want to escape campgrounds and trailer parks and camp in the wild (in their 40 foot long trailer😂). So they take a rustic dirt road believing it will lead to Nirvana. It nearly breaks their marriage… #thelonglongtrailer #lucyanddesi #vanlife #rvlife #traveltrailer #livingthedream
Here we are nestled below a migratory bird observa Here we are nestled below a migratory bird observation tower, surrounded by colourful yurts, adjacent to the St Lawrence. What you can’t see are two hundred plus other campsites choc-a-bloc with people and vehicles. The silver lining: we are on the perimeter of it all and can see the river from this site and this tower. #notourfavouritekindofcamping #montagny #quebec #stlaurent #stlawrenceriver #athomeinourhymer #camping #travelbyvan #snowgoosecapital
September camping can be quiet and even a bit mela September camping can be quiet and even a bit melancholy like here in Trois Pistoles, QC. The air is cool and damp, the leaves are changing colour and the evening sky is the stuff of dreams. #septembercamping #changingweather #quiet #beautifulsky #troispistoles #quebec #followingthestlawrenceriver
The St Lawrence River is like a magnet. The pull i The St Lawrence River is like a magnet. The pull is so strong. The tides, the alternating smells of salt water and brackish sediment, even the fog feel like home. We are savouring it all until next time. #thestlawrenceriver #basstlaurent #quebec #parcnationaldubic #sunrise #happyplace
We crossed into Québec yesterday and followed the We crossed into Québec yesterday and followed the Matapédia River across the Gaspé. The first half of the journey from the New Brunswick border was stunningly beautiful. We stopped at every opportunity. Québec has all the provinces beat when it comes to rest stops, picnic areas and overlooks. This route includes several covered bridges of varying lengths. #labelleprovince #québec #gaspé #matapediariver #coveredbridge #mintgrowsinthisriver
The antidote to travelling for three hours in a va The antidote to travelling for three hours in a van is walking 7km through a forest enveloped by the intoxicating scent of vetiver. Our travels through New Brunswick are bracketed by scent memories, coming and going. #sugarloafmountain #newbrunswick #vetiverscentedtrail #forestbathing #weneededthis
We revisited the tower at the bog today during a l We revisited the tower at the bog today during a lull in the day-long rainfall. It was there we met Aaron from Germany who is here in Canada on a one year Visa. We heard him before we saw him. He was wearing a bear bell. He was told it would deter bears and since he is travelling solo it was a good idea. He started off in Ontario and is making his way to NL before making an abrupt turn and heading west for BC. His favourite place so far?! The Gaspesie in QC which happens to be one of our favourite places in Canada too. We’ve decided we’ll start heading back to Ontario via the Gaspé this week. We can’t get enough of the beauty of the St Laurent! Québec, here we cone. #stlaurent #stlawrencebound #quebecherewecome #kouchibouguacnationalpark #thebogtower #welovemeetingpeople #vantravel
We’re at Kouchibouguac National Park and it’s We’re at Kouchibouguac National Park and it’s not raining! That means we walked every trail today, except the two that were closed. We loved them all - the bog, the cedar forest, the pine forest, the beaches, the boardwalk and the salt marsh. New Brunswick, you are beautiful and we love learning about the Mi’gmaq history. #kouchibouguac #kouchibouguacnationalpark #trails #walking #bog #pineforest #cedarforest #migmaq #theriverthatflowsandgrowsintotheforest #vantravel #canada

It rained off and on while we searched the beach for treasures. #parrsboro #partridgeisland #bayoffundy #novascotia #parrsborolighthouse #rockhounding #hymer #athomeinourhymer
