October 3 - Quebec City

Weather was fantastic - sunny and 18 degrees.  We went into Old Town Quebec today, parked the car in an underground parking garage.  Stuart had to get out to check if we were low enough to get into the spaces, and we were in the car,  you can just imagine how small the spaces were.  Everyone got a feeling of claustrophobia inside that garage.

We took a bus tour around the city so we wouldn't miss any of the historic sites.  It was a really good tour, our driver was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. 

The City is very beautiful, the people are really friendly and very helpful.  Nothing like the stories we had been led to believe.
Just had to throw this in, the color is so beautiful
They did spend a lot of money on their buildings

This was happening across from the patio where we had lunch, never had we been serenaded by a harp before 

The Voyageur with his beautiful dog, all the street musicians played beautiful music

This horse was so beautiful, they were all over town

This beautiful building is an Armory

The architecture and innovation was quite something in its day
Stuart and Jenny were celebrating their anniversary (37th) even though they have only been married for 25 years, so they stayed in a hotel for the evening (how romantic).

Don't know who the tourists are but I liked that the driver took his dog along for the day

The majestic Hotel Frontenac
