Interesting.....I will have to go find Eternity Bay on Google Maps.
Looks like we are in Saguenay quite a number of hours so hopefully we
sail up there pretty far. Hopefully they will tell us the story of the
Virgin Mary there. No need to send pics yet...have seen some online.
Thanks for the info....very interesting and now looking forward to that day!
