June 26 Friday 2009 8am 65'(18) sunny Gaspe bay Peninsula
I wake up at 6am so get up and walk the beach. Beautiful. We leave at 8am heading for Perce Rock. When at sea leval the highway curves along the shore. We see the gentle waves roll across the strange rock base. Near vertical plates of black rock sandwiched together like uplifted stacks of cards are eroded unevenly, leaving a jagged edge over which waves lap like water pouring over a roughly plowed field. Then the road begins its ascent. Now with the highway forged along the top of the rock cliffs, it becomes a driving challenge. The pitch changes constantly, up and down : 7%, 8%, 9% slopes. Then we see signs with double digits: 10%,12%. 14%. The scenery is exhilarating. Every turn another wonder. Finally we reach Perce .We stay at Phare RV park overlooking the ocean and the rock but it is too foggy to see anything this afternoon. We get in with passport America and pay only $54 for 3 nights. WIFI Free is in the laundry room and is supposed to work in our rigs tomorrow. . And the phone works now. We are parked beside Roy and Billie. We all go out for dinner in town. Another 3 coarse meal for $15 each. The fog lifts now and then. Its mostly near the water. Bill gets the satalite dish working, so we all watch global news. Roy and Billie are leaving tomorrow.
We traveled 161miles 260k
