Wonderful, fun visual humor from mysty and rojaan19. Keeping each day upbeat and exciting is important. The Silver Shadow has departed Quebec City. Didn't stay up to watch her scheduled departure at 11 pm. Plus, it was dark and the lighting challenging to see much then from our hotel window in the Old City. From our first full day in Quebec City, we continue to LOVE the character and charm here. Need proof? See below. Still have two and a half days left so we can be really in-depth for exploring and experiencing the history in this city that goes way, way back to the early 1600's. Talk about a Time Machine!! Any added tips suggestions to share for experiencing Quebec City? THANKS! Enjoy!

Did an amazing, special collection at their Museum of Art centered around the famed British designer Alexander McQueen. His fashions are displayed in connection with historic art to reflect his unique and pioneering style. Amazing collection that ties in with so much history and innovation. He not only did dresses, but unique hair covering, shoes, etc. Fascinating and stimulating display that was well worth seeing!: Here are just few more visual samples from yesterday, including at a fun market in their Arts District, their famed Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac Hotel and a tasty dinner last night. Lots of interesting architecture here!: 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TLCOhio Posted August 17, 2023 #18094 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Still super enjoying Quebec City and Canada. Heading back later this afternoon. Yesterday included visiting Île d'Orléans, Montmorency Falls that’s 30 metres higher than Niagara Falls and Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré Shrine, the oldest pilgrimage site north of Mexico. Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré is one of five national shrines in Québec and was late last July a site where Pope Frances performed mass. Below are a couple visuals for this spectacular Catholic location. Also, cute kids playing in the in water feature in front of Quebec City's City Hall. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TLCOhio Posted August 17, 2023 #18095 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Appreciate the kind follow-ups. In case there is question as to whether we actually visited Montmorency Falls, below is visual evidence. And this provides also a current picture from yesterday to confirm that I am still alive and not using my old high school picture. Yes, as shown, our weather for was perfect most of yesterday . A little later afternoon rain as we return back into Quebec City, but who can complain in this city and area. THANKS! Enjoy!

Very nice Terry! Now, try it when it's like this! Much easier to get an unobstructed picture... Silversea Expedition parka optional. Glad you enjoyed QC. Your picture reminds me that it's been more than 7 years since our last visit, so we need to get back there and see what we've been missing! Hope you are home safely and with minimal hassle. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
