Quebec City
Night time in Quebec
We are relaxing in the most gorgeous room we've had so far, in the Hotel Port-Royal in Quebec City. Yes, we are paying over $200 for it but it well worth it. We are in the old city, and we found this after driving around the city for awhile. To be walking ...
Montreal to Quebec City
Today I was up at 8.30am and got ready to catch a bus to Quebec City where I would stay for one night. I caught the Metro to the bus terminal and had some breakfast before getting on the 11am bus. Once in Quebec City, I had to make use of my little ...
De retour à la maison.
Long périple de retour en avion. Rien à signaler entre Maui et Phoenix, ni entre Phoenix et Philadelphie. On s'endure dans les avions de US Airways malgré l'absence d'écran (pas de film pour patienter). Juliette a dormi sur tout le premier vol. ...
Quebec City
The last of our stops in Canada was Quebec City, deep into French speaking territory. Quebec turned out one of the nicest if not the nicest of the cities we have visited on our trip. The old town stretches very long with many old buildings, cobble stone, ...
day 19
Today we had a fun lesson again, we had an extended game of loup-garou - this time with all of the characters possible involved. It made it much more fun, and one game took us one whole hour! We are thinking of buying Julie, our teacher, the extension ...
day 14
Today was the last day of the festival d'été (the music festival here in Québec), it was also the wettest day we have had so far - NOT a good combination! I had my heart set on going to the concerts of Grands Corps Malade and Aaron, and we now had a ...
day 17
... bad, and I decided to do that instead of rafting, because you can do rafting anywhere in the world, and I may never return to Canada. I got my place on the trip. Unfortunately Carys was going to sign up for rafting but the queue was too big and the trip ...
day 20 - whales ahoy!
Today there was no time to get a bit more sleep. We had to be on the bus at 8h, to drive to the boat that would take us whale watching! We had to travel for a long time - again about three hours. On the journey, one thing I noticed about the houses here ...
Bonjour
... (or so I would think from my limited Irish experience). Everthing is written and spoken in French. We've used hand gestures. Old Quebec is a cluster of restaurants, old hotels, and lots of shops, wound up on a little hill and walled in with a fort (to ...
Quebec City
... It started raining when we got there and we walked through the rain-soaked streets as it got dark. The highlight of our Quebec City trip, other than of course the picturesque cobbled streets, artists and many cafes was the bike ride from our camp ...
Quebec Winter Festival
Catching the bus from Toronto with Natasha, we arrived cold and in a blizzard. We are staying in a B&B and we headed out to the Hotel Glace (ice hotel). What an amazing place. Everything is made of ice, including the glasses that we sipped vodka from. ...
day 7
... the reality now it seems. While we were at the park I stayed with Carys, Chelsea and Heather. We had races in teams; Canada vs. England. I think England won, but I'm not entirely sure. After having spent an entire day in the sun, and effectively ...
another day in Quebec /noch ein Tag in Quebec
We decided to stay for 2 more days in Quebec. It is a really interesting city but much more we have another problem with the car. The diesel pipe gets air somewhere and the engine dies suddenly. Since there are much worse places to have a breakdown in ...
Wandering in Quebec
... through various shops. After a pleasant dinner at the Cafe De Paris we returned to our hotel room. We have enjoyed Quebec immensely. The French influence makes it more interesting, especially in regards to food and the conservation of the historical ...
Via Rail
... I need to do is carry my luggage up a little mountain to the youth hostel. The room is okay and the old town of Quebec city I like immediately. Quite late another girl checks in and wakes me up again, although I nearly felt asleep. On the next day we ...
day 12
... played about two of his own songs, the rest of the time was spent playing small 30 snippets of other people's work and shouting 'QUEBEC CITY' every five seconds. We left early. I bought a Quebec festival T shirt on the way out, I think I should probably ...
Jewel of North America - Quebec City
... old amazing architecture, 3)The most beautifully ornamented place during Christmas,and 4)indeed a winter spot. Although we did not visit Quebec City in winter, but we had enough fun without it. Great thing about visiting Quebec is that you can take side ...

Finding my wallet
... after asking like, 10 people where on earth Place Royal is. (It is actually at the very BOTTOM of the giant HILL that is Quebec City). I get there at 12:45 p.m. and my parents were not there. I thought this was strange, because you'd think that your ...

day 10
Today we played our game of 'alibi' that we had prepared the day before. It was good fun. The rest of my team ran out before I had a chance, so I was the one alone answering questions at the beginning. I probably didn't really help our team because I ...
Losing my wallet

Art gallery time
... CS meeting point for the evening. It was only about a 10 minute walk, but it was still absolutely freezing. Never again will I go to Quebec City in the middle of winter like this. I say that now... but who knows where I'll be next February, most likely ...
6 days before!
Ça va viiiiiiite!!! Je suis excité et stressé à la fois. Comme un dernier examen de secondaire 5 (le stress de l'examen et l'excitation des vacances de fous). Il y a peu de temps avant le départ, et tellement à faire au travail! Par ...

Today we had a little more time in class to prepare for our presentations. I just decided I would talk about the names of other people in my family too. We also finished off a few things - we voted for which cartoon strip that we had made was the best. ...
Living in the lap of luxury
Well, my mom is now a spa addict, so I bought her a gift certificate for a Russia spa in Quebec City for Christmas. It is called Izba. I guess mom wanted me to come and experience the spa with her, so we split the money and went all out for an "Izba ...
