Quebec City 2010

A little bit of Europe in North America; I love Old Quebec!Everything is so bright and colourful and there are flowers everywhere; definitely my kind of place.




I love old churches! Loads of them in Quebec!







Wow, this building is so cute!


Other cute buildings and churches





And the Parliament Buildings. We took a tour of them and I was dumbfounded by the fact we had to register and show our IDs to join the tour. Not even at Parliament Hill did we have to do that. Anyway, it was nice to learn about French-Canadian history and the gardens were beautiful.





A view of the Chateau Frontenac. I heard it costs $500 a night to stay there.



The Fort. I can't remember the exact name.  I always feel bad for the guards; I don't try to annoy them, unlike some people (Sheila!).





I have a list of French food from my high school textbook which I must try! I can now cross Croque-Monsieur off that list! We had this at the Cochon Dingue (Crazy Pig). Miam miam!



I heard about this chocolate museum and, being the chocaholic that I am, I couldn't resist! I saw a lot of cool stuff made from chocolate and I was tempted to buy the chocolate umbrella.
