Bonjour!


My 30th birthday gift from Stephane was a weekend getaway to Quebec City. We had a wonderful weekend strolling the streets of Old Quebec, window shopping, eating, drinking and eating some more. I was certain that I would find the old city beautiful, but I was absolutely taken with it. The unique architecture of the buildings and homes, the cobblestone streets, the cafes, and the smell of fresh baguette and croissants. It was easy to imagine that I had somehow arrived in France:)




The weather was a little grey and cold, but only had to pull out our umbrellas on a couple of occasions. The time of year was perfect! The pots and window boxes were overflowing with beautiful flowers, while the trees were shades of orange, red and yellow.




mmmm almond croissants. Possibly a highlight for me. Heaven!

I would go back in a heartbeat! Merci beaucoup Steph - you're the best! :)
