Day Three! A beautiful hike...

This will be short, gotta head out soon for an evening that is bound to be late... We woke up today to a blackout - this meant no lights, no hot water, nothing to cook our planned pancake breakfast with... that sucked.

We were out of the hostel by around 10am, then got to the base of the hike trail at 10.20am. The hike was massive and beautiful - it was exactly what I had wanted to do. It was rough terrain that you could climb without needing to use your hands, the scenery was absolutely stunning (pictures or maybe even a video will come soon), and even the weather held up. The trail followed a river from the waterfall at the bottom upwards, but there was always something new to look at, and at the end there was a little camping area that we had lunch at. It was 5km walking there and back again, and we didn't get back to the car until 3pm!

We came back here pleased to see that the electricity had been restored (apparently it was planned work), and we've had pancakes, showers, and are now heading 80km to Chicoutimi for the night. We'll either see a movie or go bowling, go to a restaurant, then go clubbing afterwards! You'll hear all about it tomorrow :)

Time to go, I'm getting rushed by everyone!
