Our 4-legged alarm clocks got Donna up at 6:30 am for their breakfast. We finally got up around 8:30 and decided to have a big breakfast. After a slow morning we decided to venture out and about the Eastern Townships on a leisurely drive. We headed east through Granby and then south to Bromont. Harvey noted the large number of Golf courses along our route. Both towns seem to have an enormous number of restaurants of all varieties and cuisines. Tim Horton’s came up last night and low and behold there was one over by Bromont. Yvonne just wanted to try one of their donuts, so we stopped. It wasn’t just one…blueberries are in season…as are strawberries and apples, but I digress!
A quick jog east to Waterloo, then a wandering drive south along Lac Brome, admiring many fine lakeside homes. From there we headed southeast to South Bolton where we found the gravel shortcut across the mountain to the shores of Lac Memphremagog. There we found St-Benoit du Lac Monastery, a magnificent edifice. The final town on our route was Magog, another town virtually wall to wall with restaurants of about any cuisine you can imagine.
