visit the Onondaga / Onondaga Visit
This morning I visited the submarine Onondaga. Honestly, I was not expecting much, but I was amazingly surprised. Visiting
place with the help of an audio guide. It follows the path of the submarine (it's not quite difficult, there is only one way and it is very narrow), and when we see a number, you type in the figure in question to receive explanations of the audio-guide.
The explanations are given in the form of a story. is a former submariner who is visiting the Onondaga his nephew who also thinks a career in the field. In addition to explanations about the parts of the submarine, he recounts the lives of submariners with a bonus, some funny anecdotes!
We learn therefore that it was to live for weeks or months in a confined space with dozens of other men who do almost never washed! Imagine the smell ...

Onondaga, already popular
Onondaga, the only submarine to be filled be visited in Canada, became known for the wrong reasons. It was difficulties surrounding its tow to the dock at Pointe-au-Père a media laughingstock.
However, today we see the benefits: visitors flock to visit the submarine who has had a makeover for the occasion.
I had the opportunity to see a few days ago: he had given a good coat of paint!
In this first year the Onondaga is accessible to tourists, Historic Site Maritime Pointe-au-Père record-breaking ridership. According to the newspaper Advantage the number of visits have increased by 347% compared to last year!
Indeed, while last year at this time the number reached 4600 people visit this year we've already had nearly 23,000 visitors! And the season has just begun!

The great feasts of St. Lawrence
is almost one year I did not write this blog! Not that I did not like the taste, but I did not have time. I had other priorities, but Today, I see that visits have continued to flow during my absence. It is worthwhile to do it again, and what better way to get back into the bath as you announce the third edition of the High Holidays of St. Lawrence!
If this festival is not quite old, it is gaining popularity at lightning speed! In its third year of existence, its programming is already in my opinion better than the Quebec City Summer Festival.
This year, the High Holidays of St. Lawrence will be held from July 16 to 19 . The organizers had initially target 50 000 spectators, but now that the buttons are selling like hotcakes, they expect to go well beyond this peak. Provided, of course, the temperature is on our side!
This year the lineup includes including Jonathan Painchaud, Eric Lapointe, Meaning, and Naughty Tribute to Simple Plan.
The buttons were sold in advance until July 12 at a cost of $ 13 and will sell at the door cost $ 30. For all these shows there, it's worth it, right?
