Turning 40 in Quebec City

Tom did an amazing thing and surprised me for my fortieth birthday with a trip to Quebec City. This is an amazing city - I felt like we were in France; everyone speaks French, and some folks don't speak English, and all we did on the way back to ME was ponder how we could possibly move there...

Here are some snaps from the trip:

Bea at a playground located in the Plains of Abraham Park

Tom and Bea on the boardwalk under the Hotel Frontenac. We stayed two blocks up from this beautiful hotel in the walled city.

Le Temporal - my favorite cafe, on a side street in the walled city. Wine and beer is appropriate any time of day - my kind of town!

A beautiful mural we came across on one of our many meandering walks around the city.

Bea and Tom in the wee park just up the street from us - tres charmante!

This is where we stayed in a little flat with a kitchenette - we will definitely go back to this place and this city.
