Day 6. 2484Km.
I figured I should commemorate my last morning in Quebec (for now) with a traditional Joe Louis and a Pepsi for breakfast but since I had no cakes peanut butter on toast would have to do. Oh well... maybe on the return pass.

I pulled out at 11a.m. on the nose so in the interest of time I shaved a few k's off by taking HWY 198 south before joining up with my familiar friend from the last few days HWY 132. I drove right through Perce just snapping a couple shots out the window. It's a rock! Wanna see an anomaly? Go see the remaining protrusions in New Mexico desert like Elephants Feet.

I bid Quebec adieu at Pointe-a-la-Croix at 3:20p.m. with 2250Km under my belt and arrived in Campbellton, NB an hour later which is weird because it only felt like a few seconds crossing the bridge and the odometer had'nt changed . Maybe I was abducted for an hour?

My plan was to stick to the coast on HWY 134 but, because of the late hour, soon got frustrated by the 60Km/hr limit and switched to HWY 11 which took me to my destination for the night, Caraquet, NB. I did drive HWY 145 through Bas-Caraquet right to the bitter end where it becomes a dirt path looking for a camp site but there were none so I turned back and found something overlooking Chaleur Bay just West of Caraquet.i
