Quebec Travel Blogs

I headed off reluctantly from the cottage and made my way East to Montreal. The weather was terrible and the traffic was worse. My oh so trusty GPS failed me at the final hurdle by not pin pointing where my next Campsite was going to be. All was not lost, I got it to suggest a place. I no…

We finally arrived at Québec City that this year has the 400th anniversary. The old town is very beautiful, full of tourists, but it seem to be in a fairy tale. We attended the beautiful changing of the guards at the Citadelle. In the evening we went on a ghost tour in the old town: fun …

We headed towards the St Lawrence River (Fleuve Saint-Laurent) and criss-crossed between the main highway and off-roads closer to the river - dependent on time and views (at one point a little too dependent on how much gas was in the tank).  Another brochure and another passion, this time quai…

Places I've been

Well after yesterday’s adventures and subsequent late night, I decided to take it easy for the day and just relax before heading back to Montreal. Bene had to work at 8am and wasn’t going to be back until 1pm so I decided to sleep in until 12pm and then get all showered and stuff for when she g…

Greetings from lovely Quebec City! (It is north of Vermont.)   I have always wanted to go to Canada ever since I was bitten by the travel bug seven years ago. I finally made it to Canada. I arrived here on Saturday and I will leave Thursday morning. I am here attending a work-related confere…

(July 2, 2006) It took at least seven hours to drive up to Quebec City from my home. We drove through luminous mountains and foggy skies. Driving furthur and furthur up north, I felt like we were driving off the earth. I've never been this far north of the North American Continent. The actual driv…

So, a rather tired pair face the day. We were in the kitchen area having breakfast when our stalker came in. I really cant keep called her our stalker as shes actually very nice, but I dont know her name, somehow we went straight into conversation and forgot to introduce ourselves. Shes from Germa…

At first when we got in to Quebec, I felt it a bit intimidating as everything is / was in French.. It’s been a long time that I had spoken French and of course forgot pretty all in the mean time, I still could pick up the vocational word but by far not enough to make sense of it or even endeavor…

Three hostel dorms. Three wierdos. Each worse that the previous. We start in Toronto with the woman who has been living there for about 4 months. She had a habit of starting conversations mumbling 'They'll get it you know, karma will see to it' which usually resulted in the other person looking a…
