Sunsets at Saint Fabien-sur-Mer

The coastal village of Saint Fabien-sur-Mer, just west of Le Bic, along the Gaspe Peninsula, is a great place to watch the sun set. We've done it more than a dozen times over the past two months....and it never gets old. Woody, our golden retriever, isn't noticeably entranced by the setting sun, but he does enjoy the cool air, chance to get wet, and best of all, the scent of other dogs. We stroll along the beach, some stretches sandy, others rocky. I'm always on the lookout for interesting driftwood. We also like to walk along the beach road, admiring the quant homes, the gardens, and greeting other walkers, while waiting for the sun to set, which isn't until about 8:30. Sunrise is about 4:30 so here summer days are quite long. A morning person, I'm up by 5:30 and in bed by 10 this time of year.
