Tadoussac is a small town on the intersection of the Rivière Saguenay and the Fleuve St-Laurent, and it has become a traditionnal day-trip spot. This year, Pierre, Sharon, Renée and I started by visiting the giant sand dunes and spashing around in ICE COLD water (our feet where turning bright red). It was my first sighting of a wild sea cucumber (now that may give you the wrong idea, the thing was moving at the speed of 1 inch per hour) and of crab dwellings (resembling anthills). Then, we went to our choice whale-waching spot, but no whale showed up. The whole time, we where wrapped in thick fog, making everything seem grey and mysterious. We ended the trip with a look in the Cétacébon chocolate shop, and ate chocolate all the way back home!

I love this tradition of ours. No whale this year, but what a fabulous time on the dunes. There is no describing how cold that water was except that my legs went into cramp!
