Quebec City, Canada
We have reached the Candian part of our tour and we started it off at Quebec City, mostly french speaking city. We left Boston on Sunday at the normal time of 7:45am and got to the Candian border about 2:30pm and finally got to our hotel about 4pm, so it was a long day on the road. Once we got settled in our hotel we all got dressed up to hit the town. We got dropped off in the centre of town so we have dinner and meet up at a club afterwards. I can't remember the name of the club cos it was in French but it was interesting and had a very cool dance floor. We left pretty early that night as we were all pretty tired. We were lucky as the cab we got into spoke english. It was an easy ride back to the hotel. The next morning we did a city tour with 2 guides and they explained all about the city while we were on the coach. The second part of the tour was a walking part and we walked all around the old gated part of Quebec city. It is a very pretty place set on a hill beside a river. We just can't read anything much because it's all in French. Once the tours were over we had lunch at a cafe, bought some souviners and went back to the hotel for a rest. Now dinner that night was an included dinner and we went to a place called the sugar shack. The food was very odd, most of it had maple syrup in the dish somewhere so it was all very sweet. We didn't eat much it was to weird for us. After we finished dinner they took us outside and we tried maple syrup on ice. It sounds very weird and it was weird to see but it tasted exactly like golden syrup. It was pretty cool to try something so different. After our 2 nights in Quebec City, we move on to Montreal. I can't wait!!!
