Secured for a couple of days we cleaned up a bit, both R.E.D. and us. After a wonderful land shower, we dug into our locker of clothes that have remained packed away since we last felt warmth. All ready for a trek to the big city for provisioning we walked along the Lévis waterfront’s great walking/bike paths to the Lévis/Québec ferry.

Sun…rain…forecast variable…we were ready with our back pack and rain jackets.

Waiting
The ferries run every 30 minutes and take barely minutes to cross the span across the Saint Lawrence.

The Ride
Still wonderful warm sunny weather as we crossed.

Beautiful Quebec City
See those clouds gathering? Well they opened up during our little trek through the Old Port but it was actually a really pleasant summer skin-soaking rain. What did we care? Funny thing was, with all our provisioning bags and bedraggled appearance, François noticed that even the homeless people passed us without even asking for a donation. It was a very long trek but now back onboard we have all our essentials to continue on tomorrow during favourable tides.
