FONDUES
Even though its last sighting was nearly twenty years ago, the mythical monster that dwells in the lake is still in the hearts of the locals.
Hidden deep in the underwater caves of lake Memphremagog, the creature is said to resemble a large sea serpent. For gener- ations, it was said that the Abenaki living on the shores dared not swim in its waters for fear of being eaten alive.
Every year, observers witness abnormal wave patterns that create undulating movements that evoke a large travelling sea serpent.
Who knows, maybe you will be the next person on this prestigious list? This all depends on what you’ve had to drink!
