Once back at Syl’s house, the next day was spent touring the sights near her home. The Chambly area has a falls spanning the width of the river and an old historic fort beside the rapids. We toured the fort which showed the living conditions in the period of the late 1600’s.

Chambly Falls on the Richelieu River not far from Syl’s house.

Fort Chambly is witness to the French’s presence in the Richelieu Vally since 1665.
