Bonjour Quebec

We arrived in Quebec City this afternoon and managed to find our way to our hotel.  We're in Old Quebec, and it's wonderful.  It's so picturesque and beautiful.  We unloaded and took off to go exploring. Everything we want to see is within walking distance, so we don't plan to get into the car again until it's time to leave.

Quebec then and now!!   We happened upon an artists' alley and guess what?! We've been here before!    Check out toddler Wendy and Mom in her 70's wig!

We walked around until after dark, and Quebec at night is really beautiful.  Le Chateau Frontenac is a huge landmark hotel and the most photographed sight in Quebec.

We were happy to have a successful first few hours in Quebec, and were glad to find our way back to Chateau Bellevue, where we're staying.  It's picturesque, and feels very European.  We've never been in a hotel that had a self serve wine dispenser - the ultimate vending machine!

We are looking forward to the next two days.  We'll see how much sightseeing we can fit into that time.
