Quebec city

After 4 years, I finally return to Quebec city!
Awesome breafast at Cosmos... just look at the mountain of fruits!
Un bol de Café au lait
Notice that they literally do mean a bowl of café au lait (latté)... there is no handle
Duo Mini Saucisse!
Note to the poutine joints in Vancouver: the cheese is squeeky!!! Y'a rien de plus vrai!
Exactly how I feel about this city.
Hmm... what to visit first?
Horse drawn carriage, just like in the tourism videos.
Road down Vieux Quebec
Château de Frontenac
Stairway to Quartier Petit Champlain
Chûte de Neige
The snow from a few days ago was melting leaving these streams of water coming down from the roof top. Every so often a whole avalanche of snow would fall on an unfortunate tourist.
They do have warning signs...

Place Royale
A lane to one of the oldest roads in Quebec city... it looked like an alley way to me.
Rue Saint Paul

Gare du Palais
