感恩節秋遊

We will have an activity during the coming long weekend. On Sunday (10/10/10, what a special date and number!), we will go to Parc national du Mont-Saint-Bruno for apple picking, hiking and enjoy colourful maple leaves.

Thanks Mr. Gao’s suggestion. Gathering at parking lot is bit dangerous for young kids. Plus, St-Bruno Mountain has more than one parking lot, but only have one apple orchard. Let’s meet at apple orchard at 10:30am. Anyone arriving earlier can start and enjoy the activity.

Please note apple orchard is INSIDE National park (see apple sign of attached map) but park entry fee does not cover the apple picking fee.  It’s better to park your car near the orchard so that you can offload your apples before climbing the mountain. Thus, after entering , don’t park your car near entrance place. Continue to find the second park lot (refer to the map).

When you are approaching this mountain area, please pay attention to the park sign and follow it (the sign is normal tourism sign with brown background). The mountain is not very high and easily to climb. It’s suitable for the family with young kids. We can decide which hike path we will take on site. For me, the yellow line is practical, it’s near the lake and not very long (see map). Anyway we will discuss this later.

Please bring your lunch. We will have picnic either near orchard or near lac Seigneurial. Map shows these places have picnic table.

Voila. Hope we all will enjoy the day. Weather forecast shows we will have pure sunny day  on Sunday.
