July 10 Following the St. Lawrence then South Hwy 132

Weather Sunny about 70 degrees

Our friends have a good set of walkie talkies and we have found them extremely useful when traveling in a convoy and letting each other know about traffic and when one of us wants to stop and even helping each with directions.  We both have Magellan GPS' and have found they both tend to get their left and rights mixed up. What's with that???   Oh and just to spice it up a little bit in the province of Quebec all the signs are in French - no English!  Hey what happened to having bilingual signs? So it just makes traveling with these big rigs that much more interesting.   I load our destination every night in the GPS and double check it to our map for the main roads and then double check the final last few turns to the campground to Map quest on the Internet.   Sounds like I am over doing, I know but it is worth it.
From Quebec City we traveled along the St. Lawrence River `on Hwy 20 East then turned south on Hwy 132.  This stretch is a very scenic drive along a river all the way.
