Tadoussac in June

June 2014, Tadoussac, QC, Canada, 

Getaway in Canada for a week after a congress in Montreal. 

At the intersection of the 'Fjord du Saguenay' and of the 'Fleuve Saint Laurent' (called as 'The See' by the locals, because of its width of about 20km at Tadoussac level), Tadoussac is nested between the imposing valley of the Fjord and the silence of the all-presnet water. It is also a landmark for the whales in Summer. After spending Winter in the warm Caribbean waters, they migrate to the North and find copious meals here is Tadoussac waters. The geography of the bottom at the intersection of the Fjord and the river allows plankton to be pulled up from the bottom to the water and then, become available for whales.
