Wed. Sept. 8









After a large and delicious breakfast (with good conversation!) we left our B&B (owned by a retired teacher) and visited the woodcarving museum before heading to Quebec City. It rained quite hard along the way, especially in Montmagny. We depended upon Harriet, our GPS voice, to get us to our hotel "by the shortest route", which meant we took some small streets down by the waterfront in Levis, which was very scenic. Thanks, Harriet! She then led us to a ferry to cross the St. Lawrence, rather than the bridge which probably would have been a real traffic headache. We successfully followed her directions to our accommodation - Hotel Cap Diamant, which is just below the Citadelle in the Old City.

The hotel is very old and typical of the buildings here in Vieux Quebec. On a quiet street, but nearby the busy tourist attractions, we have a second floor room overlooking the little garden with garden water feature. Parking is very close, and we are looking forward to our included breakfast tomorrow am before starting for Ottawa.
