The Trip: Pictures (Part 4)
Misc
Will have to describe all the images here ahead of time since I'm having trouble entering text along with the pictures without the pictures messing up the text.
Picture 1: Beautiful sunset that we caught on the way back. We just had to stop. There was no alternative. It was gone very soon though as it didn't last very long.
Picture 2 & 3: Ok, there's a story behind the next two. At our second hotel, Motel a la Brunante, there was this fancy shower contraption. That is, the shower could slide up and down a metal bar to adjust height and the head could also swivel. There was a sign next to the hairdryer above the sink that basically told people to be gentle with the shower and not force it. It was both in French and in English, but the English version had a mistranslation to it that I found hilarious. I couldn't resist taking a picture as it's not something you see everyday.
Picture 4: Next is the windmill park next to La Maison D'Eole (Translates to The Windmill House) where I had breakfast one morning. There were a lot of these windmills in Quebec, and to the right is the biggest verticle windmill in the world, as the waitress at the restauraunt explained. Unfortunately, the braking system failed and it's too costly to repair, so it's not working.
Those are great photos! I especially like some of the scenery shots. Thanks for the share.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous!
ReplyDeleteI've found when posting pictures that the picture automatically is inserted into the beginning of your post. But you can then insert lines between the photos to have picture descriptions under each one. If that makes sense, lol.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know. I found that it wouldn't even do that for me though, that it would instead wrap the words and put it beside the images, where I didn't want them. So, I pretty much had to add the pictures manually by inserting them and then copy and pasting the image code where I wanted the image to appear.
ReplyDeletehalf the time pictures don't even want to upload for me lol
ReplyDeleteI did enjoy all the scenery photos too
and ummm are you gonna tell us what the translation error was?
Well, basically the french version says to be gentle with the shower and not force it if it's not working. The translation to english says: Do it easy with shower. Which, frankly is quite a bad translation within our own country.
