Vieux Quebec...Celebrating 400 Years

On Saturday I got the chance to go to Quebec City. It was a perfectly gorgeous day! A crisp autumn breeze to cool us, as all eleven of us explored the old city. We started on the Plains of Abraham and walked our way down into the old city stopping to watch street performers along the way. What a lovely day!


Celebrating 400 Years of History

Chateau Frontenac...a hotel that costs about $500/night I've heard
Standing in an archaeological dig directly in front of the Chateau Frontenac. Right behind me was the kitchen and huge fireplace
Looking out the window of the dig area to the St. Lawrence River beyond
More pictures tomorrow....
