Tuesday, July 13 - 1937 Left Gaspe Basin and the Baker Hotel a little before nine A.M. and got to Perce' at 11 P.M. It was a long trip crossing the new toll bridge at Gaspé Village and then along the south side of Gaspe Bay seeing the Grand Scenic cliff ridge. When we got to Malbay we had in this beautiful sunny but cool day a splendid view of the Perce region on the south side of Malbay. At the Corner of the Beach our way to Mata- pedia was by the old road now widened and good for heavy autos that goes over the moun- tain to the south of St. Anne. Perce is now more able to take care of Tourists than ever before. We are stopping at my old place the Perce House run by Mr. Bisson This is a new hotel building and up on the mountain side of the Pic is a large Cabin settlement. There are other new places. The South Beach Hotel looks like a good place.
