28.9. Encounter with a Porcupine

On our trip to Gaspe, we take a little detour to a lake deep in the forest. An idyllic area.

Arriving in Gaspe in the afternoon, our room at the Hotel Baker is not ready yet. So we continue to the Forillon National Park. The clouds hang low in the mountains.

Something black appears on the side of the road ahead of us, which turns out to be a porcupine. It doesn't let us disturb its eating, but raises its quills as a warning.

The Hotel Baker offers a great view of the bay. The rooms are spacious and the restaurant offers very tasty fish dishes. However, there is room for improvement in the service.
