Drive to New Brunswick

On Friday the 30th we left La Maurice and started toward New Brunswick. Along the way we stopped first at an apple orchard and fruit stand. They did have freshly picked apples, but they also had freshly picked Strawberries and blueberries. Such a difference from Arkansas. So we got tomatoes, strawberries, blueberries, apples, and a couple of flavored apple cider vinegar. Next we stopped a fromagerie. This particular cheese producer specialized in aged sheep cheeses. We bought three different varieties and I thought that would hold us for a couple of weeks, but it is almost gone. This is also the day that we first ran into the problem of chips embedded in credit cards. Evidently almost all of Canadian credit cards have these now and many gas station pumps will not take our credit card and we have to go in and pay. I guess these will be phased in at home in the next few years. One thing we noticed on this drive is that all of Canada except Quebec puts first English, then French on the highway signs, Quebec just puts French. This didn't bother us much, but when we were in construction zones and had no idea what we were supposed to be doing it was a bit unnerving.
