Last full day in Quebec City Wendake long house and First Nation museum

Sadly our last day is also cloudy rainy and colder. We needed to visit somewhere indoors and decided to visit the First Nation museum at Wendake. 

It is situated by Saint Charles river and near to the Kabir Kouba chute.

We had an interactive headphone commentary in English and really enjoyed ourselves. As well as a museum there is a huge hotel and restaurant.

We saw loads of interesting artifacts from the Huron Indian tribe. 

We learnt about their culture and went into a huge reconstructed authentic long house. In here all families slept in bunks on animal skins and two families shared one fire. So there were a series of fires along the centre of the long house.

Outside we saw how they cultivated beans squash and grain for cooking caught fish and hunted animals 

Later we went to the Kabir Kouba chute that provides electricity too. 

I took loads of photos as I know Xavie is very interested in cowboys and Indian reservations. 

Here are a few for my blog too. 

In the afternoon we went back to our favourite restaurant Cochon Dingue and I had poutine with chicken and peas. Then we explored the gift shops

Goodbye Quebec we stayed 9 nights and will miss you!

On to USA New Hampshire tomorrow a long travelling day .
