1999 Oct - New England Fall Foliage Tour, "The Best of Vermont, New Hampshire, Quebec City and Montreal”

We began our vacation travel by air to New Hampshire. We stayed two nights at the Black Bear Lodge nestled in the White Mountains. Our motor coach tour traveled on the Kancamagus scenic highway. We experienced covered bridges, a train tour and ice skating. That evening we dined at the Wild Coyote Grill. The tour continued on into Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. We spent two days guided by a step on tour guide to the Citadel and a Cabaret were popular crooner Paolo Noel performed. We traveled on to Montreal Canada to cruise the St. Lawrence River in a glass top boat. Sunday morning we attended French services at the Notre Dame Basilica. Our step on tour guide showed us the 18-mile underground city, the Biodome and we viewed the city from the top of the Olympic Tower and again on Mount Royal, from which the city was named. We saw an actor James Hong at the Montreal Casino. We traveled back to the U.S. Through New York state to Vermont. It snowed as we left Canada. We toured the Teddy Bear Factory. Our last 2 evenings was at the St. Catherine Inn on Lake St. Catherine. We canoed the lake together and tour Bennington Battle Monument. We went on a tour of Hilden, the home of Abraham Lincoln's son. We were entertained by a ladie's choir the first night and a duet the next night. On our last day we traveled back to New Hampshire, seeing covered bridges, beautiful scenery and topping the day off with a picnic at the Quechee Gorge. The total miles traveled by motor coach were 1,300.
