July 15th, 2013 Quebec City

Quebec City is a must see for all Canadians - it is like stepping into another world.  In vieux Quebec the architecture is so much more European than most of the other parts of Canada.  The attention to detail & aesthetics is very visually appealing.  There is so much history to learn about and the French language all around you is beautiful to the ear.  The heat and humidity were our only challenges that day. I encourage any and all to see this exquisite part of Canada.  We were all so sad as our day drew to a close - it was truly hard to leave that city, and the next day to leave the province.
