Last Day Up North

Just in case you didn't get enough of the pictures that I posted before, here are some more from our last day. We went to Charlevoix for breakfast at our favorite place Juilerette's. I had their pumpkin french toast (can't get enough of the pumpkin stuff!) and Stein had their delicious cinnamon french toast.

After breakfast, we drove around a bit to look at some of our favorite houses there. They were all designed by the same architect, and we call them "Hobbit Houses". They amaze us every time we see them, looking at all of the stones that were carried and placed just right to achieve the final product.
We also walked around the downtown a bit, and it was a gorgeous day to be by the water. Here are a few pictures of the harbor.

I love this sign on a restaurant there. Ernest Hemingway did spend some time up north and a lot of the places there have signs that say things like, "Hemingway sat in this chair" or "Hemingway wrote a draft of one of his novels here". But I like this one the best:
