We left Quebec City in our little hire car and drove south towards Montreal. Stopped for lunch at Trois Riviere and then onto Sherbrooke (still in Quebec) where we spent the night. Next morning drove south and stopped at Coaticook where we walked over the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the world. Then south again and into New Hampshire, USA, where we ended up in North Conway for the night. Lots of activities (holiday weekend) and a feeding frenzy at the outlet shops there (Sue did some damage). Next morning, drove around the White Mountains, through lovely New Hampshire National Forrests and arrived at Bretton Woods. Here we boarded the oldest rack railway in the world for a 40 minute journey to the top of Mt Washington. The top was in the clouds, blowing a gale and a wind-chill factor of minus something. Back down and checked into the historic and beautiful Omni Mt Washington Resort for the night for a really up-market night.
