pretty much each year in august my family and i go on a roadtrip somewhere. weve been to boston, philadelphia, maine, ohio, washington dc, pittsburgh and more then once chicago. chicago is probably my favourite and we were supposed to go this year but we ended up leaving it too late and all hotels were booked. plus its harder to find hotels that will allow my puppy in chicago. so this year we decided to stay in canada (guinness can't cross the canadian/usa boarder yet because he had his shots too close before). we drove to a place called la malbaie quebec and stayed in a fairmont: la manoir richelieu. it was the perfect place. 10 hours drive, pet friendly, rooms available, resort like (lots to do).. there was a bunch of hiking trails two of which we did. one was a 6km dirt trail (it said it was beginner but i swear it was advanced) and the other hike we did was up the mountain to a golf club house. we stayed at the hotel three nights. it actually was amazing how well guinness did.. i mean, hes only 3.5 months old and he walked with us on our hikes, never had an accident, got along with other dogs and people. oh and he also didn't make us stop every twenty minutes on the way there.. he barked at the car door or got obviously restless when he needed to go out and we let him out.
