We had a wonderful time as our guide took the part of the first French settler coming over with her husband. The tour was an enjoyable combination of history and yummy snacks. Moreover, my friend lost her glasses at one of the sites, and our guide was diligent in retracing our steps and calling to see if the glasses could be found.
