As mentioned in my last post, I really slept like a baby and woke up around 8am which is perfect as I immediately adapted my biological clock to the Canadian time zone. After a brief shower, and while my host was still a sleep, I started looking for a coffee bar in the area.
After a OK-ish cappuccino from Tim Hortons (the Canadian version of Starbucks) I did some e-mailing, chatted with my host and cuddled with the dog. The plan today was to go sight-seeing. As I left my glasses at the restaurant the other night, I already knew what my starting point would be. The first red cross on the right side of the map below. I started at 10am and was back at my Airbnb around 4pm.
Most of my time was spent at Sint Lawrence Market. Wow! This is like heaven! It is a freh food market and they litterally have everything you can think of from all over the world. Fruit, Meat, Fish, Seeds, Cheese and many, many more!
Tasting new things like the award-winning and world famous “Peameal Bacon SandÂwich” from Carousel bakery or simply great Fish and Chips at Buster’s Sea Cove. I ended up at a Fruit and Vegatable stand listening to a passionate owner sharing the advantages of ginger in your day-to-day life.
After the market I walked back to the Airbnb along the waterside. The sun out, clear skies and the temprature was 25 degrees. I sometimes stopped to enjoy the view, have a drink or simply tosit down and look around.
In the evening I went back to the distillery district where I had dinner by myself and went to bed early cause tomorrow was the big day…
