Montebello

We set off at around 10 a.m. for a long and confusing drive which didn't quite work out as expected. We went through an industrial area but then got on  a lovely drive through woodland and farmland which was very pleasing. Weather was lovely and glad I had my shorts on! Montebello has an info centre entirely in French but I did find an English booklet in the box outside the door! The shop next door had an area where could you watch the pralines being made and boards explaining the chocolate process. Behind the building was a nice picnic area. We saw the outside of the huge hotel and then went to Parc Omeha where you drive through and see wapiti, bison, moose, white-tailed deer, boar with piglets, bears with cubs, wolves, coyote closeup. The deer come up to get carrots. We had ice cream in the nice shop and cafe and then a long drive on motorways to get to Oratoire St Joseph in Montreal. Arrived about 6 and went for a meal. Fr Corso did not reply to messages and emails to him would not go!
