In the morning I left home for Canada. I arrived Narita Airport at 1:00 pm.
I promised my friends, we would meet there. I was looking forward to visit to Canada.
We took Continental airlines. The flight was 1 hour late. They gave us some 500 yen coupons.
After we get on the plane. The airplane had a problem. It took 2 hours to repair.
We could get off the plane. And again they gave us coupons but this time they 1000 yen coupons.
We had dinner. Our seats were near the wings, we could watch the mechanics repair the plane.
We had to wait for the spare parts, We were scared. I was worried about repair.
I didn't want to stay overnight at Narita. However the result was good, because we didn't have to wait
5 hours in New York. We only had to wait 2 hours. We landing in Montreal at midnight.
I was very tired.
October 9th At Motreal's hotel........
I was woken by the sound of rain. I wish it would stop raining. I made a Teruterubouzu.
(Teruterubouzu →a paper doll to which children pray fine weather.
I always pray for a wish to come true.)
Then the rain stopped and the sun came out. In the morning we went sightseeing in Montreal.
We visited the St. Joseph's chapel. Montreal is Francophone Canada.
Everything and anything was French. We had lunch at the Chateau-Bromont.
We ate Canard viande (I didn't eat any) We had nice views of downtown Montreal from Mt. Bromont.
Then we went to North Hatley of Eastern Town Ships area It is famous for beautiful colored leaves
It is one of the place we visited. In the evening we arrived at the Hotel-Royal-William in Quebec.
We had dinner. The main dish was salmon.
忙しさにかまけて今頃になりました。
October 10th
I got up at 6:00. I was looking out from the window.
But it was just before dawn and light was poor.We left the hotel at 9:00.
My friends and I took assigned seats in the bus, but the seat was bad.
Because we couldn't see out the window so well. There was a painting on the outside of the
bus and it was in the way.(it blocked our view) Later we said we didn't want assigned seats.
We like to sit in the back of the bus. We went out sightseeing Notre-dame Pue du petit champlain,
Place d'Armes, Park des Champs-Bataille, Hotel du Parlement, Fairmont Le Chatean Frontenac and
Jane of Arc park.The Fairmont Le Chatean Frontenac is very famous hotel in the world.
The Joan of arc park was decorated with Halloween decorations. They look like Japanese Kakashi.
They are very cute. Today's lunch, we ate pasta. After lunch we drove to Laurentians from Quebec city.
We stopped at the sugar shack "CHEZ DANY" on the way Laurentians.
Maple syrup is made there. The colored leaves were very nice during the drive.
The sky was blazing red at sundown ( we had a lurid sunset) It was grand.
As is got dark ,all our group dropped off to sleep. A deer suddenly ran out into the street.
When the bus driver braked suddenly we woke up.
