Quebec City



We (that is Hilda and Guy and myself) travelled via a rather circuitous route that took us through Sydney, Vancouver and Montreal (our luggage got lost en route and arrived later) to H’s conference in Quebec City. We lodged in a delightful B-n-B near the conf centre and during the week we were there, managed to explore some of the old walled city of Quebec including part of the 400 years celebratory events, intent on taking photographs of architecture (the good, the bad and the indifferently juxtaposed) for Kerry to use in her teaching. Mona (G’s relative) and Nancy, who had come up to Quebec from Kingston to see us, treated us to cocktails in THE hotel, Chateau Fontenac, for G’s b’day – H had the ‘ladies favourite’ called ‘Million dollar legs’ and G had a ‘Manhatten’.
