Day 14 Sat Aug 26 : Quebec City to Fredericton NB

After staying overnight in Beaumont/Quebec city we got up and packed and headed east again. Judy had the escape route planned and it's a good thing she did because I was all turned around and didn't know where the hell we were. We had thought about continuing up # 138 but decided to not do that. We therefore passed on Baie St. Paul and Tuddusac where there is beautiful scenery and whale sighting areas. If we had gone that route we would have had to cross the St. Lawrence on a ferry from Cape Simeon to Rivieres du Loup. It took us 30 miles and a bunch of freeways to get to highway # 20 east. It runs from Quebec on the south side of the St. Lawrence towards New Brunswick. The ride east on #20 was just cruising on a 4 lane past scads of dairy farms, corn fields and towns with HUGE churches. We stopped for a coffee in Rivieres du Loup. It's on the way to Rumouskey which is the home town of Sydney Crosby. After a stop in Edmonston NB we got to Fredericton about 19:00 and shut down for the day. We had pizza for supper and watched the football game.
