After scouring the area I finally found poutine. It is a delicious combination of french fries(of course), gravy, and cheese curds. I chose the "poulet poutine".









Montreal is a beautiful city and can be described as the "Canadian New York". Unfortunately, besides Mt. Royal, there isn't much in terms of nature. I decide to take the scenic route towards Quebec City down QC 138. Luckily this route follows the St. Lawrence River so there is no shortage of scenery.



I finally arrive in Quebec City. It is noticeably smaller than Montreal, with a population of around 700,000 people. After asking some locals, Montmorency Falls is the must see nature sight in the area. The size of this waterfall is truly impressive.

I'm hungry and I need poutine. After renting a vehicle I head east on Jacques-Cartier Bridge (134) and speed off.
On my way to find a delicious meal I spot something interesting in the distance, it's St. Helen's Island. From there I take a detour towards Dolphin Lake...luckily I found a Subway restaurant to temporarily satiate my hunger. It's no poutine, but it'll do for now.


Dolphin Lake is beautiful. Not only that, but amusement rides surround the lake as well. I opt to take a gondola across the lake but unfortunately, my soul and stomach are still empty. I head back on the road to find my poutine.
