Fall Colours Around The Pink Lake
Mark took his first interprovincial trip when Feng and I decided to check out the fall colours in Gatineau Park, in Quebec. We drove around for half an hour—I’m always impressed by how huge the “park” is!—and made it to Pink Lake, a popular scenic lookout around the eponymous lake (which is not pink).
The fall rhapsody is gorgeous this year. The leaves actually stayed on the trees longer than usual and turned into lovely yellow-rust tones.
As for Mark, he slept through, snuggled against me and oblivious to the beauty around him. Ungrateful brat or blasé traveler…?
You can see all the Fall pictures on the Ottawa (Fall) set on Flickr.

Beautiful! I love fall. I’d say Mark is blasé, he doesn’t want to appear TOO excited when he knows he has some incredible adventures ahead of him.
I think that was it
What a beautiful setting for your first pic of the three of you!
Yep, we were lucky!
That’s such a great first photo of the 3 of you together!
I like it too, the setting was perfect!
The colours there are simply magnificent during autumn!!
I have just discovered your blog and love it.
I am the opposite: I am a Canadian settling into France (and vying for French citizenship). Your emigration stories are emphatically felt.

I hope you can fulfill your French dream! Don’t you wish we could exchange passports? Would make life easier, wouldn’t it!
Gorgeous colors — what a perfect fall day!
We are lucky to have this amazing fall rhapsody in Ontario!
