This Trip's Theme.....

Every time we take an extended Roadtrek trip a "theme" sort of presents itself. The first trip, years ago, we began to count roadkill. I seem to remember that racoons "won". Other themes have included the names of cemetaries, the slogans that are chosen to represent small towns....like "Buckle of the Corn Belt".

This trip we were headed up to Quebec and then traveled around the Gaspe Peninsula...a lot of driving. Quebec is a fascinating province and French is the first language. I loved it.....searching back in my brain for the high school French that helped just a little bit. I found that if I attempted to communicate in French I was greeted with a smile and many times using English completed the conversation.

But one of the most fun things was looking at the road signs! Most of these photos were taken quickly as we moved down the roads....some were pretty obvious, others took us a little while. But I present a few - see if you can figure them out!

Love the use of the word "intrusion" in this one! Imagine an intrusion with a MOOSE!

This sign was on a ferry that took us across the Saint Lawrence.

Keep in mind that the word "mort" means death!

Driving next to the bay if a storm comes up - watch out!

:-) Probably more tomorrrow!
