Quebec City

P5040043
Quebec City was lovely. Like being in Europe. I had lot's of "this feels like Edinburgh" moments, strangely enough, but then I'd turn a coner and feel I was in France, or one of England's walled cities. And this promenade reminded me of Nice, despite the lack of beach. The whole place was very pictureskew, really. Click on the pic for more.

Just looked through that set of photos... Quebec City does look amazing. Some of those buildings look ancient. But I was astounded to see snow in some of those photos! Doesn't it EVER melt??

Well, it was a record breaking year for snow. I'm told that in Quebec the snow was so high that you often couldn't see the street signs, which made navigation difficult. And yes, there's still snow around in odd corners - I haven't seen any in the last week here in Montreal though. Quebec is a bit colder than here, on average. And on the way in to the city, we saw a huge brown mountain, which I believe was one of the city's snow repositories.
