Thursday, June 19th

The first day we pretty much saw everything
there was to see. I took about 200 photos the
first day. And we finished off the night with
a beer at the Hostel bar. The next day we thought
we would relax and really take in the sites we
had already seen.



We woke up at about 8 and went for a delicious
hostel breakfast. Then we started walking and
walked along part of the wall.



Nice photo off a pedestrian bridge at the edge
of upper town.



That is lower town and the river



We bought some fancy french bread,
amazing Quebec Brie cheese, and some
vegetarian patte, then we had a picnic
with a bottle of rose in a nice park.
Probably one of the highlights of this
whole trip.



Wine and bread in my bag



Thats lower town

Today was the day we traveled to Quebec
City, the train ride was very pleasant,
the city was breathtaking, and the hostel
was very welcoming. Overall an amazing day.




The Quebec station



Outside the station, it looks like a castle



Cathy walking up to the hostel. It was
very close to the train station, a 15
minute walk.



We unloaded our stuff and went on an
amazing walk, it was so breathtaking



The view up here was awesome I loved it



Really nice statue on the Duffern Terrace



The Chateau Frontenac, the most photographed
hotel in North America



There was lots of cool little parks with
pretty statues in the city



This street of artwork was really nice.
I bought two etching's from one of the
artists.



You can see all the tourists in this
square, the city is full of tourists



There is our bunk bed



We decided for a late night stroll
outside the walls of the city



So pretty



I snapped this awesome shot of the gate.

Today we got a ton done. We checked out
a couple amazing churches in Montreal
and then we watched a film at the Montreal
Planetarium. Then we sat on a patio at
a micro brewery for a nice dinner.

Sunday, June 15th

Sunday was another day spent at Tam Tam's
its one thing I am really going to miss after
we leave, so relaxing and everyone is so happy.




lots of people out again



Catherine lookin around



We set up camp against a tree with some
chips, beers and Popsicles



This dude is a crazy homeless guy who always
hangs around the area, today he was climbing
trees and throwing strings of garbage in the
tree, not very nice



lots of folks



cool little drum circle in the forest



The statue is the central point of it all



another drum circle



At night we went to a really really good
theatre production at the one of the just
for laughs stages. It was a really good time.
The play was part of the Montreal Fringe fest
and the idea was it was the last 88 years in
one hour.

Saturday, June 14

Today was pretty eventful. We woke up
and went to tim's for breakfast since
we were pretty much out of groceries.
Then we went and browsed around the museum
of contemporary art for a few hours
which me and Cathy really really enjoyed.
Afterwards we had some dairy queen icecream,
got lost in the underground mall again and
ended up in The Bay, only this Bay had
9 floors!



Cathy got a huge sunburn from friday



Nice little church



Pretty flower



Walking down St.Catherines



Really cool church



Same church again, we read something
about it and it got raised off
the ground a few years back and
moved

There is all this cool stencil
graffiti on the sidewalks, all of
animals and stuff
