Quebec City...Bon Jour!!!

Our "European" Vacation in and around Quebec City - C'est Magnifique!

Old Quebec City

* Le Chateau Frontenac
* Cobblestone streets
* Cute shops
* Great cafes
* Amazing flowers (my garden fix) 
* Basilique-Cathedral Notre-Dame
* Les Fete de la Novelle France (to get a taste of the French history in Quebec....and there is a lot of amazing history!)

Saint-Anne-de-Beaupre 

This shrine to Saint Anne is the oldest pilgrimage site North of Mexico. It's spectacular and has over a million visitors each year.
It holds a special memory for my Grandmother and Uncle John.

Parc de la Chute-Montmorency

The Chute (falls) is 272 feet tall.  I took the stairs to the top...487 (to be exact) and I "thought" about zip lining across but just couldn't do it.

hmmm...
Wings!!!

If I had these earlier it would have made getting to the top of that waterfall much easier -  and much less much painful the next few days.

Off to Montreal next!
