montreal day 5

We took a road trip today to Quebec City. We were quite interested to see this road sign:














Quebec City has very charming European style streets in the old part of town. We had lunch at this beautiful hotel called Chateau Frontenac orginally built in the late 1800's by the Canadian Railway to accomodate their wealthy travelers. We had a stunning view overlooking the St. Lawrence River.

















Then we drove to the Ile de Orleans. There were many interesting villages. We stopped at a shop that had once been a church and purchased a birdhouse made by the owner as a remembrance of our experiences in Canada.
