If you are a tourists and on your way to Quebec please follow our advise and travel at least a part along the shores of the St. Lawrence River.
Quebec is beautiful but so is Ontario. On your way you will pass Brockville a beautiful small town with a population of approximately 24 000.
We always stopped on the main street at the same restaurant to have break and enjoyed a light meal. We always found free parking close by.
We preferred to sit on the patio and enjoyed the sight. Luckily there was no excessive traffic as you can see in our picture below.
Brockville got its name in honour to General Sir Isaac Brock who was a hero in the war of 1812.
Before that happened the town was called was Buell's Bay. It dates back to the year 1765 which very old for Canada.
Luckily many of the historical buildings can still be found and add to the character of Brockville lots of flavour.
